Wiki says it was once thought to be a Durer, but was probably a collaboration of Gossaert and someone else? I've downloaded it to show my grand-daughter when she arrives, she having been in her P1nativity last week! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think there was a mill or calendar workd so could it be looking towards the Perth Road? I'm pretty sure that's looking up from Magdalen Yard Road up towards Perth Road. I think that's the high mill on Shepherd's Loan on the left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I rather enjoyed the recent Mucha exhibition at Kelvingrove- "cor, all them willowy birds 'arold" as old man Steptoe might have said. This one is advertising the French railways- the round floral wreaths are meant to remind you of the train's wheels. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was fortunate enough to visit Prague when the IvanLendl:AlfonsMucha exhibition was on "On 10th of April 2013 was presented unique exhibition of posters by Alfons Mucha from the private collection of Ivan Lendl in the Municipal House in Prague. He began to collect works of Art Nouveau artist during his tennis career, from the beginning of the 80’s. He managed to amass more than 150 artifacts and art of Mucha and that makes it the most complete collection of the author." Absolutely brilliant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
