I like the new purple backdrop in Tate's rehang of this portrait by Nina Hamnett of a dandy Chilean Opera singer. When born in 1890 “Everybody was furious, especially my Father, who still is. As soon as I became conscious of anything I was furious too, at having been born a girl"

"Turner's tiny house reveals the painter's bigger picture" Rachel Campbell-Johnston @thetimes writes on p13 today in her full page review. Turner and the Thames opens tomorrow in Twickenham. Visitors to his house can enjoy "an intimate encounter with the artist".
Thanks @SalonLondon & Flo Perry for a fab talk on feminist sex; interrogating patriarchal conditioning, virginity as a social construct & its 'loss' likened to tasting your 1st choc croissant - you might need to read this frank, fearless, funny book to understand that reference!
