A new work by Johann Zoffany (c1760) comes wagging out of the woodwork. Must rank amongst the earliest ‘humane’ portraits of a whippet. The whippet’s owner has yet to be identified. Possibly an actress.

Say it with a £10 million rose. One of the Rockefeller treasures on view at Christies this morning. By Manet. To be sold in May. #Fakeorfortune in Paris.
2/2 Fully cleaned. We still need to crack her identity. C 1670 abd attributable to John Greenhill, a pupil of Lely who died young in a tavern brawl.
Compelling and poignant documentary on BBC4 now about Stanley Spencer through the eyes of his two surviving daughters. Must be one of our greatest artists - at his best easily upstaging Freud. #wantone
Are these the brushstrokes of Lucian Freud or an imposter? Make up your own mind Sunday 8pm.

The ultimate Dame by a dame. HM in 1950 by Dame Laura Knight. Can't bring myself to sell it.
