Description
The Royal Academy of Arts [aka the "R.A."] , located in Picadilly, the West End, London, is the oldest art school in Britain. Founded in 1768 by King George III, these majestic gates first opened to some of the world's most famous artists, including John W. Turner, William Blake, and John Constable ... and many, many more.

Terrific way to frame all these fantastic details. I enjoy a busy frame, with lots to look at. My eye travels everywhere trying to find all the relationships. Excellent work. L/F

Love the variety of details you have included in this fine image, Connie... including the red phone booth, which may too soon become obsolete. f/l
Connie Handscomb replied:
Thank you very much, Ann! the telephone booths are already obsolete .. they've become Green .. except for the ones that were designated as Buildings {or some such "heritage" code they received} .. they will always remain with us :))
