"Mr Merrick". Joseph Merrick's skeleton is hidden within a room at the hospital museum at Royal London Hospital, part of the Bart's Pathology Museum collections QMUL. He is not on public display and very few people have been allowed access to him. To me he is not the 'Elephant Man' but Mr Merrick, an amazing man I have been privileged enough to spend time with and these are my drawings of him. ©Lucy Lyons
