When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
and nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;

How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;

And bending down beside the gowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars. - W.B. Yeats

Miro in Shanghai







This Miro Exhibition, on the fourth floor of the Shanghai Art Museum, was an absolute pleasure, and a return in memory, for me to Barcelona, and a whole day spent at the fabulous Miro museum there...there was a Joan Miro Exhibition
"Parade of Obsessions" in the Zhejiang Museum in 2009, which includes many of the drawings in this exhibition, but also incorporated sculptures.  The charm of the prints and paintngs was enhanced by the children copying the "child like" quality of the prints. A wonderful experience....
