00:00This year's summer exhibition is in its 256th edition and as ever it is of course an incredibly
00:19wide range of works that we're showing.
00:21Do not get sort of panicked in thinking you have to see absolutely everything because
00:27then you have to come back several times and it will probably take you a week.
00:31But let yourself just be freely inspired and only then look up in the little booklet who
00:39the work is by, what it is and also how much it costs because of course the other beauty
00:44of the summer exhibition is that the works on the wall can actually be yours.
00:48After all, they are for sale to benefit the Royal Academy.
