Pictures At An Exhibition

 There is a fine exhibition of self-portraits by John Bellany at the City Art Gallery, Edinburgh, running until September. My son and I paid it a visit in June and were very impressed. I was in Edinburgh on Monday for the 12.20 pm mass at Old Saint Paul's so I took the opportunity of paying it a second visit. There were several paintings which I wanted to see again and to which I wanted to give more time. I spent a good fifteen minutes sitting in front of his massive triptych, 'Homage to John Knox.' [Sadly, I'm unable to put up a photograph for copyright reasons.] Should you be in the capital do not miss this exhibition.
