Yes it is an interesting set. No surprise that LUG folks like the chess
player best. After all it is (nearly) BW and it is from the shadow side
;-). Much of the rest reflect a taste for a particular fashion/approach I
guess. I must get to that National Portrait Gallery next time I visit that
city.
I have to say that in general they interest me much more than the also
recently concluded Archibald Prize here (for paintings).

Cheers,
Geoff
