Wolfgang Mattheuer, The hero of Labour or also referred to as The Honouree. 1973. I took these photos in Berlin’s Neue Meister. Her pale pink lipstick, her shiny shoes and the crease in the tablecloth. The bright red and yellow tulips. Beautiful 💙

I attended the Van Honthorst exhibition in Utrecht and it was stunning, beautifully curated, lighting was superb. I have to admit one of the finest exhibitions I have ever seen. A totally immersive experience. I believe it will be remembered as one of, if not the greatest exhibition of 2026. 💙

if you see a work for the first time after reading and studying it and it simply stops you in your tracks. Is that just me . I am overwhelmed. Kirchner’s Bathers at Moritzburg. The scale and the colour 💙

Photos I took in The Giacometti room in Zurich’s Kunsthaus. It holds the largest museum collection of works by the Swiss sculptor in the world and it is one of my favourite spaces I have ever visited 💙

Tickets booked and I am curiously excited. Zurbaran while brilliant is an artist I have never consciously sought out while visiting Museums. I will keep you posted 💙

Just back from a recent trip to Berlin and Dresden. Absolutely brilliant. Here’s a photo of their National Galerie in Berlin 💙

One of my favourite Van Dyck’s. I found myself lost in this work and wasn’t quite sure why but by filling the horizontal canvas it brings the scene closer to us as if we are part of the unfolding tragedy. I love this composition. Photos I took at The KMSKA Antwerp circa 1640.

Savoldo’s Mary Magdalene, the gold version photos I took last month in The Ufizzi and photos I took last week at The NG London. And while I love both these paintings I think The Ufizzi (prototype) is beautiful. 💙

As some might wonder if the Easter truce 'on humanitarian considerations' announced by Putin from 18:00 today to midnight on Monday will indeed take effect, as opposed to all other similar announcements by the agressor, Kyiv & Kyiv regions are under kamikaze drones attack & air defense is working.

Futurism, they were an awful bunch, how to separate Art from the artist 🤷🏼

Everyone keeps talking about negotiations, so a reminder from the site of one of Russia's numerous war crimes in Izium, Kharkiv Oblast, where 447 bodies were found in those mass graves, that this is what Russian occupation means for those under it. 🔗 Full video 👇 www.instagram.com/reel/DFxHB6j...
