We are very proud to announce that also this year The Sisters’ Room is collaborating with the Brontë Parsonage Museum. On the last Friday of each month we will publish special contents curated by the experts of the museum. Let’s have a look at what’s inside the closets, drawers and cupboards at the Parsonage. You will find in this section some of the objects that belonged to the Brontë family and which are kept in the Brontë Parsonage Museum archives. Enjoy this new article!
This drawing was an exercise set whilst Anne was a pupil at Roe Head school in Mirfield, twenty miles away from Haworth.

More than a third of Anne’s surviving drawings were made whilst she was at school and kept out of pride in her own work.
