Vanity

I've just written a blog post about my recent trip to the Dovecot Studios in Edinburgh, and whilst editing my photo, I came across ones I took in Birmingham a month ago when I went to see Grayson Perry's tapestries, The Vanity of Small Differences at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.

I was very impressed with the museum itself, but nothing could prepare me for the tapestries. They are very engaging works, with multiple artistic and cultural references, and striking use of text and narrative. Having them at Croome is going to be quite something.
