I supplied images from Gaza to form a backdrop to the following exhibition at Brunei Gallery, London. Jackie Baines designed the exhibition: she is the graphic designer for SS Great Britain - Winner of the Gulbenkian prize 2006

This unique exhibition celebrates the diversity of ancient Palestine. It also illustrates the deep, rich heritage of a region repeatedly portrayed in today’s media as a place of conflict and suffering. The exhibition highlights the extraordinary finds made by the archaeologist Sir Flinders Petrie, who was Professor of Egyptology at UCL and spent many years working in the area around modern Gaza in the 1920s and 1930s.
