On behalf of Hinton  is that the one you wanted? That's the one! Thanks a lot! And sorry for being such a Fricking nuisance. Of course the sheer wealth of detail is impossible to convey by this means but I have to admit that, on the only occasion I saw it (several years ago), it took my attention for what felt like at least ten minutes but which turned out to be nearer half and hour... Best, Alistair

Sorry Alistair, another liftestyles of the rich and famous contribution.
Why are you apologising to me? There's absolutely no need (and I'm not even certain what it is that you're apologising for)! Best, Alistair Whoops, sorry (again) Alistair. My tongue in cheek apology was directed at Chafers for subjecting him to yet another Pre-Raph work  My brain is obviously not up to speed yet today  Shuffles off to don brown paper hat and collect coat.

Can every instance of pre-Raphaelite kitsch be counterbalanced by some striking Abstract Expressionism, Minimalism or something else of that ilk?

Cy Twombly! There's a name to conjure with, in more senses than one.

The city is a process which always veers away from the form envisaged and desired, ... whose revenge upon its architects and planners undoes every dream of mastery. It is [also] one of the sites where Dasein is assigned the impossible task of putting right what can never be put right. - Rob Lapsley

Here we go then. The central triptych of the Rothko Chapel. I honestly believe that this is one of those cases of 'you have to be there': the accumulated power of the 14 (?) canvases in the space itself is truly awe-inspiring. I've mentioned this before I think, but I witnessed a performance of the Feldman work in the chapel, years ago. Unforgettable.

Alistair - if, after the first img but before the ], you insert a single space and then height=500, it comes out bigger !  Works with "width" as well
