More Kungsleden watercolours! 1) View from the highest point of the Kungsleden: The Tjätkja pass. Seeing the expanse of this landscape, the beautiful colours, all those textures and its remoteness was very moving and it feels so special to me that I got the opportunity to paint and thus spend a little longer in this place, feasting my eyes and filling my heart. 2) Saying Goodbye to the trail by having lunch in the harbour with perfect views of Njulla. 3) Murky afternoon at Alesjaure. We walked a bit further past the hiking cabins and found a good spot for wild camping halfway down the lake. Alesjaure greeted us in the wildest shade of turquoise next morning. 4) Lunch break up at Tarfala, looking at one of the glaciers. I cooled down so much from sitting still and painting, that it took me 1,5 h walking downhill again, before my fingers weren't numb anymore.

still not over simon's performance in the finale, because as much as I adore the Captain, and Ben's portrayal of him, it's always Julian that resonated uncomfortably close for me. Alongside Pat, I think he was the one person where emotions are concerned that I always wince and go, yikes, ok that's me sometimes. The way it all hits him in an instant and his movements fail, the breath he takes when he looks to Alison and realizes the enormity of the past five years. Simon nailed that desperation and love so, so fucking well and i don't know why i'm still surprised because the man can fucking ACT.

The BBC lady blowing my mind by pointing out the parallels between the endings of North and South and Jane Eyre (man brought low after losing his fortune, woman has gained wealth and comes to his rescue so they're now on equal footing).

She also pointed out that North and South is a continuation of issues Bronte explored in Shirley (to the point that Helstone is named after a character there), so I guess I may have to read that book one day.

Queen Charlotte (1744-1818)

Artist: Thomas Gainsborough (English, 1727-1788)

Date: c.1781

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: Royal Collection,

Description

When this portrait was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1781, Sir Henry Bate-Dudley praised it as ‘the only happy likeness we ever saw pourtrayed of her Majesty’. Gainsborough had already received commissions from the King’s brothers but the exhibition of these major full lengths proved his pre-eminence as unofficial court painter, ‘the Apollo of the Palace’. A portrait of Prince William, painted in the same year, was followed by the set of 15 ovals of the royal family in 1782. Reynolds commented on Gainsborough’s practice of ‘forming all the parts of the picture together’. Here all the parts have a suggestive delicacy. The Queen’s dress of gold-spangled silk net over white silk, punctuated by tasselled bunches of gold lace, dominates the painting. Its intangible gauze-like effect is echoed by the flowers in the Queen’s powdered hair and in the foliage and sky in the landscape beyond. Famous for capturing an exact likeness, Gainsborough gives the Queen’s unremarkable features latent gaiety and animation as she moves into the light, her dog in step with her. Her regal bearing is reinforced by the height of her elaborately dressed hair, her easy control of her hooped dress and train and the grandeur of the classical temple behind her. James Northcote, Reynolds’s pupil, also praised the portrait: ‘with what a graceful sweep she seems to move through the picture! ’Tis actual motion, and done with such a light airy facility . . . The drapery was done in one night by Gainsborough and his nephew, Gainsborough Dupont; they sat up all night, and painted it by lamplight.’ Although not a State Portrait like that painted by Ramsay in 1761, this full length by Gainsborough has been rightly described as a ‘portrait of grand informality’; it was much copied. George III hung the painting in the Dining Room at Buckingham House, although it was briefly transferred to Windsor in 1804/5.
