A Letter

 The Letter dates to around 1878, and is by James Tissot, telling a story in and of itself, as a woman tears up a letter she has received.


A look down a side gallery, with Dancer beyond.


The Salutation Of Beatrice dates to 1859-63, and is by Dante Rossetti. 


An unnamed British artist painted View On The River Wye around 1830.


One final look at our Dancer for this visit.


This is Actaea, The Nymph Of The Shore, an 1868 work by Frederic Leighton.


I leave off today with this dramatic work. Souvenir Of Loch Lomond is an 1875 painting by Gustave Dore.
