Looking forward to visiting @EHKenwood on Thursday - for my talk on ‘#Ravilious, John Piper &
English Romantic Modernism’
Always great to spend time with the Wilmington Giant.
And to think again about Coventry Cathedral
Reading #Ruskin on Turner (again) & his description of Turner’s ‘sensibility to human affection’.
Ruskin calls this ‘heartsight, deep as eyesight’.
Thinking about our own ‘heartsight’ today.
