SAT16 London National Portrait Gallery

After park run

Cheese toasted sandwich and then bought an apple from one of it many small fruit shops.  Sophie peeled off and Marcus,Henry and myself took a bus into town. Henry was keen to take the bus because you can see things. 
 
Interesting to see the styles change across time.  Early on, important for people to loo pious and they did.  In the 30's, more colourful and less detailed.  I think that photography had arrived and so the need for paintings to be detailed was less and so artists probably looked for ways to differentiate themselves from photographers.  So try and communicate other feelings within the painting.
 
 
 
 
National Portrait Gallery.  I figured the photo should be in portrait mode.
