A blog everyday in September: Day 17 My favourite painting

I follow a blog about motherhood and saw that the writer did a 'blog every day in August' challenge and I really enjoyed reading it, so I have decided to take part in Chickywiggle's blog every day in September

Day seventeen: My favourite painting

Whistlejacket, By George Stubbs

This is not so much about the painting - albeit wonderful. It is more about its placing in the National Gallery in London!

You walk through the Great Hall and turn right, and there it is. It's in an enormous frame that you can spot through the doorway as you approach. It is the most amazing placement I have seen and catches my eye EVERY time I go in the gallery. I can't resist walking by the gallery without going inside to see!
