London













It was nice to walk through the autumn leaves to the Tate Britain. Past the palace gates and past all those strange royal watchers. I quite like the new directors rehang and the inclusion of her scholarly interests. I always wondered why the Tate Britain did not house a broad ascension of the well known British sculptors. This was followed by a visit to the Queens Gallery which despite all the bad taste royal watchers souvenirs, also has some incredible exhibitions of the Queen's royal collection. On view was a really lovely exhibition of the lost genius, Castiglione. Other days were taken up by a trip to the other side of the Thames for a tete a tete or a view of the equally as interesting Klee exhibition. His delicate watercolors were well worth the view. I also like the general collection or the rooms surrounding Rothko's room. Another exhibition on view was the Daumier exhibition at the Royal Academy. It is always nice to walk around London through all there beautiful parks and gardens. The National Gallery has a very precious Renaissance ascension so it was lovely to view some of the paintings I have written about during the year. God blessing.
