An arty outing

[kazzy_cee]

Today was the best day of the week with no rain and sunshine! Even though it was cool at only 15C/59F, the sunshine made it feel much warmer and I wore sunglasses today!

At the National Gallery, there is a new exhibition Van Gogh: Poets and Lovers which I have tickets for next month, but today I went for a talk about Van Gogh and his influences in

If there were any way I could go but there isn't...I am dying to see the Van Gogh exhibition.
The tour you did today sounds wonderful.

I am looking forward to the Van Gogh exhibition - the preview day was yesterday and it was heaving with people waiting to go in, so I'm glad I didn't book that too.

I always liked Seurat. I thought he was underrated.

I like his landscapes, but not so much the people.

Thank you for sharing it - it looks very interesting.

It was - the tour guide packed a lot of information into the 50-minute tour!

A wonderful collection of paintings! I can’t wait to see all the pictures that I know you will post when you get to the exhibition itself.

I'm so glad I got to see the new loans. If I'd just gone to the preview day (which was Friday as well) I don't think I would have looked at the Van Gogh paintings in the main galleries as I would have thought I'd seen all they have and missed the new ones!

It was a good tour, and I learned quite a lot!
