Photos: Amy Jade Winehouse's possessions go on display in London

The English singer and songwriter, Amy Jade Winehouse who died of alcohol poisoning on 23 July 2011 left among other things clothes, records, photographs and a high-school essay.
The exhibition of her belongings opens at the Jewish museum in Camden Town, London and it is titled Amy Winehouse. It will run till September. More photos after the cut...


Put together with the help of her brother Alex, the exhibits include fridge magnets, childhood books and her audition essay to the Sylvia Young stage school.
A suitcase of family photographs she was looking through in the days before she died in her Camden Town home in 2011 also feature at the show.
Many of the items have captions written by Alex.
He said: “This is a snapshot of a girl who was, to her deepest core, simply a little Jewish kid from north London with a big talent who, more than anything, just wanted to be true to her heritage.”
