New Exhibits

The Museum is delighted to present two new exhibits. The first was generously donated to the Museum by a group of beneficiaries, a print from 1946 of a Picasso painting entitled 'Woman Drinking Absinthe'. The second exhibit is an opium jar. This exhibit features a jade lid with cork insert upon which is fixed a bone spoon for partaking opium as a snuff. The Museum has tested remnants within the jar using modern scientific methods and have evidenced the existence of morphine.
