Throughout history to the present day, guns have been embellished and intricately decorated, plated in gold and covered with diamonds. As aesthetic objects of art, they have been used to campaign for peace, as tokens of love and desire and as diplomatic gifts between nations. This thought-provoking exhibition asks us to reconsider the symbolism of guns.

Visitors will be able to see iconic objects from the Royal Armouries’ collection as well as modern art pieces from renowned artist and peace campaigner Bran Symondson-Baxter.

Fraser Randall were the project managers for this fascinating exhibition that is open at The Royal Armouries Museum until the end of June 2024.
