So lots of different stuff. I love the creepiness of Bosch and it was quite a treat to see it in person. Another painting in the exhibition (rubbishly, I forget what it was, or who it was by) I thought looked familiar, and suddenly realised I'd last seen it with you, at the National Gallery! It was on loan. So while we were wandering around, talking about what I might see in Venice, I was probably looking at one of the things I was going to see...<br /><br />Saw some other great stuff too - Carpaccio's scenes of Renaissance Venice, and Veronese's parish church, which was round the corner from our apartment.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06451400175678526101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8121729378254905202.post-54068986585535707562012-10-24T21:56:34.824+01:002012-10-24T21:56:34.824+01:00Eeep, you commented.

Bosch rules, is creepy and also amazing. No Bosch in CB. :-( But look, there is one (only one) in London:<br /><br />tp://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/paintings/hieronymus-bosch-christ-mocked-the-crowning-with-thorns<br /><br />Picturetalk321https://www.blogger.com/profile/00140843071368851486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8121729378254905202.post-29508201021657507892012-10-24T20:56:42.085+01:002012-10-24T20:56:42.085+01:00Hello!

This reminds me that I unexpectedly saw some Hieronymus Bosch paintings while in Venice earlier this month (among many other wonders) - very dreamlike and they've always struck a chord with me for some reason. My mum was less impressed.<br /><br />Good luck with the lecture!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06451400175678526101noreply@blogger.com
