The Money Museum also exhibits many extremely old paintings, such as this one of Queen Isabella of Spain.

These were initial drawings of designs to be used on note money. Ideas came from pictures of things that symbolise the country.
A group photo of SG D and we covered the three peculiar statues of women symbolising different stages of womenhood; maiden, wife and mother. The one in the middle was most shocking to me for she had several pairs of breasts (see below).
