Painted in a wall in an alleyway in Naples.
Now this is true art, done from love and the pure joy of creation.

This is the best preserved medieval street in Europe.

Recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086, The Shambles in York, England has had shops trading on it for nearly a thousand years. It's older than the Crusades.

'Canal Steps, Venice.' (1921) Edward Southall first visited Italy in 1883 and visited almost every year. He painted in watercolour and tempera and thanks to his efforts, by 1900 tempera painting was well established in England.

And that's enough.

@ChrisPopeWrites @debjshaw @RGRyan777 @DrKristieLeong @ampomata And you think - pause for amusement - that you can run it on solar power in Wales?
Oh, you optimistic you.

We'll be the judge of that.

[Alex Connor @alexconnorwrite]

@ChrisPopeWrites @debjshaw @RGRyan777 @DrKristieLeong @ampomata Dahling, you know I adore you.
(I've almost forgotten the poor shivering apricot tree you left out in the snow.)
