If you have a life outside of BWFC, then this is the place to tell us all about your toilet habits, and those bizarre fetishes.......

I had a black tie dinner last night in a very nice-looking room in Pembroke College (Cambridge), built in 1355 with a very ornate seventeenth century plaster ceiling designed by Henry Doogood, one of Sir Christopher Wren's master plasterers. Across the courtyard there is the chapel designed by Wren, and also the impressive Victorian gothic revival New Library, by Waterman.

Plenty of 'great works of art' around the place, just not enough time to see them in....

We've obviously lost the point of this thread - great works of art that ain't worth a half-hearted fart in the opinion of the poster...

But need one for the inspiring works of art... ok... let's do it, while keeping open this one for the totally/abysmal/incomprehensible/whogivesafeckanyway...

I'll start great art thread...

Am I really on a football forum?

:D :D :D

The Greatest Work of Art in the World

Post by William the White » Mon Oct 20, 2008 1:13 am

I thought I'd offer this one as a challenge...

You can choose only one...

Visual art only, painting, sculpture, installation...

To start...

Velasquez, las Meninas... and followed by almost anything else he painted...
