ADDING A NEW DIMENSION TO DUNDEE’S MEDIEVAL CARVED STONES
The McManus Art Gallery and Museum in Dundee has had eight large and finely carved stone sarcophagus lids in its posession for many years. The coffin lids represent some of the finest examples of such carvings from the middle ages and offer us a glimpse of high status burial in the medieval period in Scotland. Thanks to support from the Heritage Lottery Fund, some of Dundee’s treasures are coming out of storage for the first time in generations.
