So the new Persephone Biannually should be arriving in the UK, alas not abroad unless paid for on the website (for years we used to send it abroad free but now the customs difficulties and postage costs has made that impossible). This week on the Post: some images from the Biannually. (Which will by the way be in the Biannually Archive the next few days, and of course anyone abroad with a good colour printer could print it out, staple it together and voilà. Here, first of all, is the painting on the cover, which is in the Bristol Museum and attributed to Thomas Pole, it has been dated to 1805 by the dress. The setting is 14 St James's Square, Bristol which was alas demolished in the 1960s.
