I so wanted a postcard of 'Downs in Winter' and others, but they weren't there. Thanks for all the information and comments. I'm still thinking about what I saw yesterday.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11541685551303326896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-15930342705777596582015-08-07T09:06:54.992+01:002015-08-07T09:06:54.992+01:00I went to see this exhibition a couple of weeks ag...I went to see this exhibition a couple of weeks ago and absolutely loved it - and found just the same thing as you, Mary - very frustrating! But thanks for all this extra information, Lydia, and for the thoughts about the paintings - I keep thinking about what it is that makes them so intriguing- and so beautiful.Sue Purkisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09084528571944803477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-71417770532744270812015-08-07T01:11:46.064+01:002015-08-07T01:11:46.064+01:00War artists are near and dear to my heart.

Thankfully, I was able to correspond with him - he was 92 at the time! - and his daughter helped me out tremendously. He passed away a few years ago, but the autobiography he left of his wartime experiences is amazing to read.Melissa Amateishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16086267508858187716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-19557431822703308512015-08-06T20:04:06.710+01:002015-08-06T20:04:06.710+01:00Such evocative images - thank you!Such evocative images - thank you!Joan Lennonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15763862159032836768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-43151039191695785642015-08-06T18:11:30.495+01:002015-08-06T18:11:30.495+01:00he's a lovely artist, thanks for this Lydiahe's a lovely artist, thanks for this Lydia<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Catherine Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14610226884546830879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-17761652556856592572015-08-06T11:40:24.063+01:002015-08-06T11:40:24.063+01:00I saw this a couple of weeks ago.

In fact, I find this is true of every exhibition I go to; why is this?Mary Hoffmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06241989732624913706noreply@blogger.com
