There also was an exhibition, \u201cLondon Stories\u201d an illustrated poster exhibition. One of the posters on display stood out and caught my eye, it was called \u201cThe Blitz and Ravens of the Tower of London\u201d by Dawid Celek. The poster only used a very simple graphic with a hand full of colors, it was about the bombings that happened during WWII and depicts six silhouettes of ravens around Big Ben while a blimp drops bombs.
