Just think, in around 1644, in Oxford, after all that had happened to religion in Britain under the Tudors, there was an English painter at work producing Caravaggesque night scenes! And I write about him in the Sunday Times today! Stand up and cheer for William Dobson!

I was a bit sceptical about the new 'portrait' of Leonardo that's been identified in the Royal Collection (LEFT). Face looked too young. But sent me a reworked version he made, with hair and beard (RIGHT), and I have to say it's pretty good. Bravo

Comrades! It's the birthday of the magnificent Lyubov Popova (1889-1924), giant of Russian constructivism, who died much too young, killed by scarlet fever. She was a painter, sculptor, activist and designer. Reading FC should wear the football kits designed by Varvara Stepanova!

Beep beep. It's the birthday of Barbara Hepworth's husband - Ben Nicholson. His work is deceptively gentle and calm. But he was a turbulent man. Three wives. And he was a member of the spooky Christian Science cult which believed that all illness could e cured with prayer. Hmmm.

"For all we care, those prehistoric Stone Age culture barbarians and art-stutterers can return to the caves of their ancestors and there can apply their primitive international scratching." Adolf Hitler on modern art. !

I don’t think this homage to Escher can be bettered as a description of Brexit. Bravo Bob!

'Allo 'Allo. It's the birthday of the fascinating, spooky, inventive, unusual, gripping, theatrical, psychologically intense, pictorially unique, luminously brilliant, long-forgotten Baroque genius, Georges de La Tour. If I had a salmanazar of champagne, I'd raise it in a toast!

It's Mondrian's birthday. You know where you are with him. Or do you? The famous squares are one thing, but the strange Theosophy paintings are another! Mind you, he did inspire my favourite dress, ever! By Yves Saint Laurent.

I don't understand why today isn't a bank holiday! It's the day William Dobson was baptised in 1611, and Dobson went on to put a face to the English Civil War by painting its protagonists so brilliantly. If that isn't worth a bank holiday, what is!?

Beep, beep. It's the birthday of the pioneering Paula Modersohn-Becker (1876-1907) - early German expressionist. And I mean really early. With all those self-portraits of hers, she rocked the Frida Kahlo/Cindy Sherman impulse. But she did it first!
