Titian

Visible to anyone in the world

My boots needed mending. So I went into town. While they were at the cobblers I strolled into Waterstone's for a browse.

Humour, biog., history, new books, nothing I fancied until I found,

Publisher; Harper,

Author; Hale Sheila,

Title;    Titian

The first sentence is much too long but makes you impatient to read about the paintings. It describes the view from Venice, of the mountains where Titian was born and reminds me of Brucker's Renaissance Florence. Dear reader, (thank you Charlotte Bronte) I bought it and I'll be spending the next couple of days in 15 C. Venice.
