Here in the UK, our National Maritime Museum has taken the lockdown wraps off the major show “Monsters of the Deep” and opened it to the public. The show surveys the fact and fiction of sea-monsters, and includes hundreds of pickled mini-monster specimens shipped over from the U.S. National Oceanography Collection. It runs until January 2022, though note that this is not the London branch of the Museum — you will have to trek down to Falmouth, in relatively remote Cornwall, to see the show. It appears to be paired for its duration with “Viktor Wynd’s UnNatural History Museum” in which Viktor uses taxidermy to devise curious and never-seen creatures.
