Who'd have thought the once repugnant alleyways of #London would one day be our greatest and most thought-provoking views into the heart of the old city.

A beautiful view into the pre-policing world of 'Parish Watchmen'. I particularly like the water fountain, though the entire painting is very special indeed.

So, I'll say goodnight today,
In case of no tomorrow.
But, if tonight turns into day,
I'll see you on the morrow.

When I see the native homeless and drug addicted prostitutes across London, it literally kills a small piece of me each time. We can barely help ourselves, never mind those who need it most. Societies' deliberate decline isn’t just visible in human suffering, but societies ignorance to it.

Four previously unknown drawings by John Constable that were hidden among a jumble of letters, poems, jokes in a family scrapbook made over the course of the late 18th and 19th centuries.

Farewell, fiddle, and all that you wrote,
So, too, the times that you brought.
So, too, the ballads that beside you once sang,
And the culture in which you once wrought.
Farewell, Fiddle 🎻

If a professor spent years patiently studying a topic only to impatiently call others stupid when asked about it; then they'd be no professor, but a well revised ignoramus.
