The Marion E. Wade Center features a museum that showcases memorabilia and
rotating wall displays which highlight selections from our collection of books, letters,
manuscripts, and artifacts. Through these exhibits we invite our visitors to explore more
deeply the seven authors' lives, writings, and historical context in which they lived.
The Wade Center museum is proud to present an exhibition featuring the life and works of Pauline Baynes.
Pieces in the exhibit include: original drawings for Prince Caspian from the Chronicles of Narnia series
by C.S. Lewis, other fantasy-themed illustrations, a selection of published illustrated works,
as well as new paintings by Ms. Baynes based on Psalm 8. The Psalm 8 illustrations have been
published in a limited edition book entitled Psalm 8: How Excellent is Thy Name,
available only at the Wade Center.
