The Bruegal and Hiroshige's winter landscapes are some of my own favourites too. (Though sadly never seen the Bruegel in real).
Also really interesting choice with the final painting too. I've never heard of Raqib Shaw - but honestly, am already feeling the need to hold on to the hope of those Spring Daffodils here. (And it's not even December yet!!!) :)
Thank you so much, George! If you ever have the chance to visit Vienna, I think you would absolutely love it. And yes, I definitely look forward to spring every year - after Christmas, I'm pretty much ready to fast forward to March
Weirdly we are contemplating hiking part of the Tokaido Road, staying in traditional inns en route; though definitely not in winter!
That would be an epic series for your Substack!
Indeed!
Loved this, Nicole.
