The first ever exhibition of Quentin Blake’s illustrations for the French literary classic 'Voyages to the Moon and the Sun'  by Cyrano de Bergerac, a 17th-eentury tale of space travel which inspired many of fiction's greatest fantasy adventures.  The exhibition coincidies with The Folio Society’s publication of a new edition of the book, which Quentin first illustrated in 1991.  The new editions allowed Quentin to re-visit his previous work and produce some new illustrations, several of which are on show.
