The Captain and I went to the Dulwich Gallery today - see his blog (URL in blogpost below). Lovely gallery, but some of the Sickerts - early ones, in Venice - were a bit disappointing. This was because some seemed (to us) to be in need of a clean. Unless the Venice of his day was permanently covered in a choking smog...
If we had only had Col's mum and a brillo pad along with us, I think she could have done wonders.
Great gallery though - with some wonderful things. I rediscovered Murillo and remembered that i used to love him as a child, looking through my Children's Treasure House Art Book.
