We're thrilled to announce that two loans, both watercolours by Edward Burne-Jones, are now on display in the first floor Ideal Book gallery. They depict St Agnes (with the lamb) and St Dorothy (holding the sword), who were both martyred for refusing to marry.

They were painted in around 1866 and were originally designs for stained glass, now in All Saints Church, Cambridge.
