It's still raining in Sydney, but in bursts of two hours here followed by beautiful Botticelli skies and then one hour there followed by the southerly which always comes through by 5pm eastern Summer time.
Today I walked through the Domain in one of the sunny moments and the trees and lawns are looking lush and green. At the NSW Art Gallery today I tried to explain the two portraits of Margaret Olley to N. How one is a self portrait and the other a famous William Dobell painting. The two Margarets look nothing like each other. My preference is for the self portrait of course as it is far more revealing and I like the way she makes her visage look in the mirror above the still life of her favourite objet des artes.
