Prisoner 4100


Prisoner 4100, originally uploaded by The National Archives UK.

George Davey was sentenced to one month's hard labour in Wandsworth Prison in 1872 for stealing two rabbits. He was ten years old.

The National Archives have a flickr account - there are some wonderful images to browse through. You can click on the links to go to their page.

Geraldine Cox

I visited the Affordable Art Fair in Batterse Park on Friday which was buzzing with a huge variety of art and art-lovers and there seemed to be quite a lot of buying going on. I saw several pieces of work that I liked but this was the piece that I would have chosen to bring home with me. The Butterfly Collectors painted by Geraldine Cox as a study for a larger piece, I loved the subject matter, the colours and the brush marks - it is a small yet powerful painting. You can have a look at some more of her work on her website. The fair continues today.
