A derelict ‘rock house’ built into the sandstone escarpment at Kinver Edge, Staffordshire, UK. The cave dwellings at Kinver were inhabited from the 1600s (or earlier) until the 1960s.

The Wrekin photographed from the grounds of Attingham Park, Atcham, Shropshire, UK. 
The Wrekin is a hill located some five miles (8 km) west of Telford rising above the Shropshire Plain to a height of 407 metres (1,335 ft) above sea level. It is a prominent and well-known landmark, signalling the entrance to Shropshire for travellers westbound on the M54 motorway. It features in a well known local saying, ‘All around the Wrekin’, often used in reference to someone who talks around the point of a matter or takes an unnecessarily long route on a journey.

Thank you for bringing Nicholas Roerich to my attention. I’d never come across him before but I’ve very much enjoyed looking at your photographs of his beautiful paintings and also browsing through more of his work online.

I went to Vienna to see The Kiss by Gustav Klimt but no photography was allowed so I had to make my own version of the iconic painting in my sketchbook. 
“If I were to kiss you then go to hell, I would. So then I can brag with the devils I saw heaven without ever entering it." - (Often attributed to Shakespeare, from The Tempest adaptation).

The Secession Building, an art exhibition hall in Vienna, Austria, completed in 1898 by Joseph Maria Olbrich as an architectural manifesto for a group of rebel artists, including Gustav Klimt, that seceded from the long-established fine art institution.

Above the entrance to the Vienna Secession is inscribed the motto in gold lettering: "Der Zeit ihre Kunst. Der Kunst ihre Freiheit." which translates in English to "To every age its art, to art its freedom”.
