The Victoria and Albert Museum in London (V&A) has launched a webpage dedicated to research into the provenance of its objects. The day is organised by the Research Association for Provenance Research, which is described on its website as “a nonprofit membership organisation for the promotion of provenance research in all its interdisciplinary variety”. A V&A spokesperson says that the new collections page compiles existing articles along with a newly published piece about the museum’s Ethiopian collections. The landing page also features a selection of objects from the collection that speak to a variety of provenance themes. The new text on Ethiopian collections , by the provenance research curator Alexandra Watson Jones, explains that the V&A’s collection includes around 90 objects from Ethiopia.
