Petrarch Panels Graphite Riven
In 1996, the former Geology Museum in South Kensington was transformed into the Natural History Museum’s Earth Galleries. The atrium of the museum is clad in Petrarch Riven, Graphite. The Petrarch Panels were sent to an artist who etched the constellation design into the panels. Some panels were lightly etched, others were painted to give different depths and contrast.
