Let’s start 2018 with a nice picture: probably my favourite painting from @CourtauldGall - The Toll Gate by #HenriRousseau 1890 - as perfect as anything by #NicolasPoussin and more mysterious than the #Tempesta by #Giorgione
I have no proof that this oil on panel was painted by Lady Arbinger in 1888 but I do know £10 was a bargain.
@philipmould Cezanne without doubt invented 20thC British painting.
