I do love my newly framed print of Claude Monet’s “Meules/Grainstacks” (1891) bought at Museum Barberini in Potsdam in July. It’s my favourite painting in the permanent collection. It sold for $110.7 million at Sotheby’s New York back in 2019 making it the most expensive Monet work ever sold.

Wonderful tribute to a teacher: young Sofonisba Anguissola paints herself being created by Bernardino Campi -- yet at same time, she is of course creating him! Today is her day.

A wine tip for white wine lovers.

This Baron Amarillo Albariño from Aldi Ireland is fab and costs only €10.99. It comes in a distinctive blue bottle.

It is a crisp, zesty white from the Rías Baixas region of Spain and is an ideal wine to pair with fish or seafood. Highly recommended!

Old Kinsale Head and Hook Lighthouse have joined the SLATED Landmark Collection.

Two meticulously crafted icons with so much quiet luxury they practically whisper.

Consider this your gentle nudge to “accidentally” fall in love with both.
