Lots of new followers lately, mostly posting about #politics. I'm sure you're all lovely people, but I don't want a feed full of politics. So please don't be offended if I don't follow back.

Like a church or cloister, but a temple of commerce instead: the Amsterdam Exchange (or beurs), designed by Hendrick de Keyser and here wonderfully painted by Emanuel de Witte in 1653.

#TombTuesday This overgrown pile of rocks is all that's left of a Neolithic tomb - Holm of Papay North in Orkney

Excavations in the 1980s found at least 18 red deer were placed here with the burials 5500 years ago!

Why?? 🤔

I was lucky enough to see this amazing medieval tiled pavement on a recent tour at Exeter Cathedral with the Devon Buildings Group.

Uncovered in the room above the chapel of St Andrew and St Catherine during work on the roof.

I saw this reproduction of Pere Borrell's #painting, Escaping Criticism (1874), on a #wall in Foligno. It looks as if the boy is climbing out of the frame. #mural #wallsonwednesday #wednesdaywalls #art #streetart #streetphotography #photography #illusion #eastcoastkin #anzaa #blueskyphotography

Today's artist without a (known) birthday: Emanuel de Witte of Alkmaar. Painter of churches, markets, portraits. All-around great artist! Here, Nieuwe Kerk in Delft w/ tomb of William the Silent, 1656.

Here's a late afternoon shot from #WansteadPark - this is the well known bluebell site, Chalet Wood, but it's gorgeous this time of year too.
