Possibly the greatest interview of the year.
People tend to think of classics as being “boring,” but we wouldn’t keep reading them for hundreds of years if we didn’t love them. Let me introduce you to some FUN classics:
We changed the frame on Ruisdael’s large Landscape today. The over gilded French 18th century centre corner frame was replaced by a newly acquired Dutch 17th century ebony moulding. The landscape expands and settles down, as intended by the artist.
We want a more modern look … yes a small municipal crematorium would be fine!
Miley Cyrus and Jimmy Fallon singing Jolene disguised at the subway.
A rare photo of the UK leaving the planet out of sheer embarrassment over its leaders and the opposition.
The silk designs of James Leman. A little bit psychedelic, a little bit graphicsy, and in such fresh colours they might date from the 1930s or 60s. In fact they are the world's oldest surviving set of silk designs, found in his Album c.1705-10, created when he was aged 17-22.
Did over 40 miles cycling around central London today, stopping at all red lights etc, averaged 14.9 mph 👍- a glorious day & no big dramas but a few Twitter observations given I don’t use a camera….
Been thinking about Toppy Paget, the 5th Marquess of Anglesey, who wanted his ping pong uniform to be green so he had it covered with emeralds.
Was Thinking of trying some more art this afternoon but my art hand is very achy today defo all the creating during the last week ☺️🫣 But really wanted to do something arty for sure ☺️ so decided to laminate more of my drawings what needed laminated ☺️❤️
too much to deal with tonight to even begin but for now: here’s jus a couple of gal pals with their olivier awards xxx man xxx man oh man oh man
Scot Sir James Gunn painted portraits of royalty, prime ministers & other notables, but I suspect he most enjoyed depicting his wife Pauline. The portrait of her in a yellow dress was described in the press as “the Mona Lisa of 1944” garyarmer.co.uk/70-years-of-pa…
Lady to me after my talk today: ‘I need you to know so you can correct it, that you’re just too much. You need to be less. Be quieter.’ I was hurt. This was not something I’d said or done. This was me. So sorry lady, but no. I’m going to keep doing me. Marmite from @ChrisFarrelly
It’s been a privilege watching these frescoes of scenes from Trojan mythology emerge from the pumice in Region 9, @pompeii_sites. And what an unforgettable experience it’s been working with @BBCMorelle and others to bring these discoveries to the public gaze this week. #Pompeii.
As ever, these remarkable discoveries are brought to you by the meticulous and diligent work of the archaeologists and conservators on site who do phenomenal work to excavate, understand, and preserve these traces of daily Roman life and to them we owe our deepest thanks #Pompeii
