"Picturing The Museum" Photography Exhibit

June 23, 2008

Museum Staff Cleaning Elephant Skin, from the American Museum of Natural History (Mommy, why did the lelephant take his clothes off?)

The above photo is from the new web-based exhibit Picturing The Museum from the American Museum of Natural History Research Library. This came to me via Morbid Anatomy.

Can I just say? Those men are cleaning an elephant skin. With no elephant inside. It makes my ontology ache.
