Tate Britain

As a Turner fan, I have been to the Tate Britain several times (just search "Turner" for previous posts). We saw all the Turners, again, and also breezed through the historical collection and a couple of the special collections, and, of course, the superb gift shoppe. But it was the Rex Whistler Restaurant and its 360 degrees of Whistler murals that got my attention this time.

My personal favorite, Comfort of Old Age

Don't remember what Hockney was doing at the Tate, but I admire his early
dabbling in acrylics and later use of a Mac

Now in the Rex Whistler Restaurant at the Tate; students of this blog will recall
our last Whistler encounter, at Plas Newydd (http://roadeveron.blogspot.com/

This is a similar but much larger version...
