Thank you for organising this gathering Classics@RHUL. It will be appreciated by so many

On this day in 1652 Pope Innocent X flooded Piazza Navona for the first time - transforming it into a lake - a summer custom that would continue, on and off, until 1885. #Rome📷Roma Ieri Oggi (Tommaso Cuccioni, 1858).

Superb Long Man walk led by Martin Bell for @sussex_society. Jury still out regarding how old the Long Man is but the tree in the graveyard of the church in Wilmington is about 1600 years old…amazing.

Echoing this. A brilliant organisation and board. Do consider applying

Rome’s ‘miraculous snowfall’ last night

Caravaggio's Madonna of the Pilgrims outside of its setting w conservators on hand to answer questions. Q: why does the blue drape look degraded? He mixed too much oil with his combo of black paint and thin layer of azurite blue creating a structural problem. On view til Sept 3.

Well said Cordelia and Fishbourne Roman Palace @sussex_society you do and have done transformative work!

I had a lot of fun thinking about Fra Filippo Lippi's use of light (and gold) for National Gallery Picture of the Month with my clever and lovely colleague Harriet O'Neill 🤩✨#workfun #painting #yesitsmydayjob nationalgallery.org.uk/paintings/pict…

Brilliant to see this happening for the second year running.

We need your help! We’re trying to track down early aerial photographs of London’s Crystal Palace, especially views of the Park. How early? Victorian and Edwardian. Let us explain… (1/12)
