A day when I discover a new artist for me, Elga Sesemann, and it's like a gut punch. Stunning

Beautiful libraries


https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1660027852127961091.html

Talking of books, the Vatican Library doesn't seem to have any.

Martin Kemp (Spandau Ballet), Nick Heyward ( Haircut 100), and Martin Fry (ABC).

Heyward is the same age as Kemp, 62, and 3 years younger than Fry.
