Nigel does like to have a good old mooch (as do we all), and I think he has quite an eye for the unusual …….but yesterday he spotted something that thank goodness he didn’t bring home ………
It’s certainly not the most cheery of prints with which to adorn the walls of your family nest, and I think that even Lady Dame Kelly Hoppen, the doyen of interior design and good taste might even have a struggle to find the perfect niche for it in any of her A lister clients homes too. 
I have to admit to being a trifle relieved that Nigel did not make a considered purchase, however, had he been tempted, he said he would have been found disappointed, as it had disappeared from the shop window by the time he went past again a little later……. phew!!!

ReplyDeleteThat picture would be very difficult to live with; for me downright impossible....stress overload every time you pass by!....wonder why dear Nigel was so drawn to it....lucky lucky escape....Love to all, Dianne
ReplyDeleteAfter reading Mr D's post concerning Hogarth, I delved further into this illustration......oh my goodness........JantheFan x
ReplyDeleteThis is a famous cartoon by William Hogarth of Beer Street and Gin Lane. Not good places for young Nigel.
