While researching Castelvecchio in Verona I discovered this wonderful library. La Capitolare is the oldest library in the world. Once a Scriptoruim dating back to 517 A.D. 100,000 books,1,280 mss, 11,000 parchments. My illuminatrix in Rage of Swords would have had her work archived here.

What will be the wee man and dog key holder. Made a routered slot so they can move apart or together. Time to let the glue dry, then finish with Danish oil.

Buongiorno! On a sunshiny day from the terrace of the Guggenheim, one of the most beautiful venues in Venice for a press conference (& decadently healthy breakfast). Lucio Fontana in ceramic like you’ve never seen him. “Manu-Facture” to March 2, 2026-> www.guggenheim-venice.it/en/whats-on/...

Oct 2022 I was finishing this Pretty Kitty on a Ditty on a page from La Belle Helene (featuring Troy poppies cos I love an in-joke!)

A rather grand kitty drawn on a libretto page from my late mother’s collection - La Belle Helene is about Helen of Troy so I also used Poppies of Troy as an embellishment

The mysterious slab in Written Stone Lane, #Preston, #Lancashire. A #boggart lived beneath it and attacked a man who foolishly scoffed at its existence. After trying to use it as a gatepost, a farmer was also punished by the spook and rapidly put it back: 'TO LYE FOREVER'
#PhantomsFriday #folklore

My photo of the Written Stone (does it always lie in shadow?). The inscription reads: 'RAUFFE RADCLIFFE LAID THIS STONE TO LYE FOREVER AD 1655'. It's been suggested the stone started life as a prehistoric standing stone. There are a number of tales of ancient stones being moved, only for the mover being forced to return it by invisible forces or recurring bad luck.
