Bravo on managing that climb up to view that amazing ceiling, and also bravo for the descent. Wow.<br /><br />Thank you for acquainting me with Thornhill and other commissions that he completed. I like your musing about how his talents might be commissioned in today's world.<br /><br />Eventually, I will have my own Greenwich visit. Up until now, there just always seem to be too many other wonderful destinations vying for my time while I am in London.<br /><br />(Of course, there are many wonderful places near to my NYC home that I have yet to see.) xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220897337333701839.post-8362414691121223732017-05-14T19:08:05.008+01:002017-05-14T19:08:05.008+01:00That is amazing and fascinating - so much fun to s...That is amazing and fascinating - so much fun to see the work in progress, and it would be interesting if you can see it again next year when the restoration is complete (or at least further along)Clearly something else I have to add to our "to see" list next time we are in the UK!<br />My cousins' son is working with the restoration team on Knole house in Kent for the National Trust, and that is another place I would love to see both in progress and when completeCarole Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17078397128427961327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220897337333701839.post-71790887008232758472017-05-14T13:37:02.139+01:002017-05-14T13:37:02.139+01:00What a fascinating experience, and I'm surpris...What a fascinating experience, and I'm surprised at how close to home it is.
