Royal Academy of Arts

Click for larger imageWe made a fantastic discovery today. We found the Royal Academy of Arts.

The academy is a fine building, next to the Royal Astronomical Society and the Society of Antiquarians, with a nice blend of old and new architecture. They had an exhibit of the work of William Nicholson, a British painter, print-maker and theatre designer who lived from 1872 - 1949. His wood cut prints are just fabulous, and still somewhat available.

I have become suddenly aware this week, over my few days off, that we need to buy art to remember our life here and to decorate the fabulous new place we are going to buy. Better get back to work soon or this could get expensive.

I'm surprised you didn't like the Tower of London more than you did. We loved it. Did you do the audio tour? That made it for us.
