Description: | This model of a sea anemone was made by the Blaschkas, a family of highly skilled glassworkers. Several lots of models were bought for the Newcastle Museum between 1865 and 1870. It is labelled as Lythausia longstonensis, a joking reference to its similarity to the Longstone Lighthouse. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East animals art glass natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
