"A piece is worth your attention, and is itself for you praiseworthy, if it makes you feel you have not wasted your time over it." (Sydney Grew, 1922)

Another stunning artist, instantly recognisable. Have I done him in the shoddy gazebo of Victorian and Edwardian Art yet? Been so long since I visited, I can't bloody remember. :D

I don't remember seeing him! I was going to drop a hint! ;D I had a thing for Waterhouse,because they were in those old Arthur Mee books (tomes) I had when I was a youngster. (Handed down to me!) He was famous once upon a time for his Children's Encyclopedia & Children's Newspaper! I think it was his fault I was the only kid in school who thought we still had an empire! (One big happy family!! ::) ;D) He was obviously keen on those kind of paintings. Burne-Jones,Rosetti,et al!

The 1968 broadcast conducted by the composer is in the British and Irish Music Archive: out of the original sixteen movements only two are excised. This new recording is very welcome indeed! The mirror crack'd from side to side... ::) ...better nip down to the local pound-shop then methinks. Can't say that said Lady seems too bothered - after all, the bus doesn't come for another couple of hours. My curtains fell down yesterday, perhaps she could pick up some rawlplugs while she's at it. :D Not Waterhouse, but Sidney Meteyard (1868-1947).
