His works can be seen in public collections including Bradford
Museums and Galleries, Cambridge & County Folk Museum, Maidstone
Museum, Bruce Castle Museum, Kensington & Chelsea Local Studies,

Valkyries Vigil
Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery will stage an exhibition, Pre-Raphaelite Twilight: The Art of Edward Robert Hughes,
in autumn 2015.
(O god I want to go! I've been to the Birmigham Museum and seen their permanent Pre-Raphaelite installation, mainly there because Sir Edward Burne-Jones was a Birmingham resident, as were members of Black Sabbath)
