‘Canada Square,’ 1989. I watched this building being built and mature trees being dropped into place by cranes. In 1996, painting was damaged in a gallery near South Quay when the IRA bomb was detonated. I still have the work and have left the marks created by flying glass, all part of its story!

Just in case you miss it:

The original wooden escalators from 1951 are still in the Tyne Pedestrian and Cycle Tunnel, though they've taken one out per side. They don't move now but you still walk up/down them to access the tunnels (if you're not using the lift).

One indication of Bazille's close ties to the Impressionist circle is in this curious scene he painted of one of his friends in bed with a badly injured & inflamed leg - a bearded figure who is none other than Claude Monet, with whom Bazille shared a studio www.musee-orsay.fr/en/artworks/...

In March 2025, the Royal Academy is exhibiting around 70 pictures by the author and politician Victor Hugo, who is less well known as an artist than he should be. This work is of the Eddystone Lightstone from 1866.
