At the Royal Academy until March 10th

Having arrived in that London I thought I’d check out a nice little exhibition at the Royal Academy called Impressionists on Paper. As its name suggests, this is a collection of drawings, sketches, and studies done with charcoal, pencil pastels, and occasionally watercolours, all done on paper. The artists involved cover the spectrum from Degas to Toulouse-Lautrec. My favourite is the study by Seurat that became part of a very famous painting but which is wonderful in its own right.
