I just watched a fascinating program about something I am shocked to say I never knew of previously. I just watched a program discussing Scotland's art - only to find out that one of Dali's most famous paintings - the "Christ of St. John of the Cross" (1951) is kept on display at St Mungo's Museum of Religious Life.
I didn't know this painting existed - I didn't know how stunning it was. Just look:

Isn't that stunning? I'm amazed at how I could not have known that such a fantastic piece of work was so close, yet I've never seen it!
It's actually decided for me, my plans for tomorrow. I am going to the Burrel Collection. I haven't been in years now, and I bet it's changed lots since I was there. Have to give mumsie a call and see if she's busy. Haven't seen her for ooooo - half a week now :)
