Also for #StDavidsDay here's the Pet Shop Boys singing with a Choir of Miners. Utterly joyful.

Some of those miners had marched with the gay & lesbian members of LGSM in the 1980s.

The Pet Shop Boys have performed the song with #Welsh Male Voice choirs often since this performance ❀️

After a few days away in London & a rather "trying" journey home it has taken me a while to "come to" this #SundayMorning, I'm sorry to say! Here's our "usual" start to the day: "Sunday Morning, Farringdon Road" by Cecil Osborne from 1929. It is in the collection at Brighton & Hove Museums

They made numerous prints of the linocut, and I think the original one I posted was number 9 of 50.
Here's a link with a nice description by his son, of the process for one sold that was number 6 of 50

Linocut - Wikipedia

It's a linocut, printed on woven paper using oil based inks. Additional blocks were used for adding the lightning bolt and the sky. Bawden’s son and fellow printmaker, Richard, noted that they often mixed their own inks using linseed oil & dry pigments to achieve exact colours and consistency.

I love how parts of it appear to be soft focus, while the trunk and branches appear to be sharply in focus! It's lovely.
