A close-up of St Edmund on the Thornham Parva retable. Made in the 1330s, part of that great flowering of English art that was about to be snuffed out by the mid-century pestilence, and probably made for the Blackfriars church at Thetford.

Cover of an anthology of writing. Title is Curae.
Coming soon coming soon.... an anthology of new work by writers who are also carers. I'm in here somewhere. Thank you so much to @bookwormvaught.bsky.social and a heads up to @ylbooks.bsky.social and any other bookshops who might like to carry a copy (out in November).
wow!
'Sleeping Centurion,' (c1765) is a preparatory sketch for a sleeping soldier in Ubaldo Gandolfi's fresco of the Resurrection, painted in the eleventh chapel of the Portico di San Luca, Bologna. The fluid brushstrokes achieve a work of intimacy and great charm.
