A tricky picture

Hi Had quite a busy Saturday with lots of visitors coming to Ted Coney's Family Portraits. I had one loyal supporter coming on her third visit, so I had to make sure I organised a different tour.
I did the 'Sense of Place' tour which involves talking about a rather difficult painting ' Fools Gold'.I first show the dolls house in the dark with all the lights off and all the minature lights sparkling; there's even a christmas tree. I then tell the sad story behind the picture and then move swiftly onto the painting about Yve and Kevin's wedding. They seemed to enjoy it all and wrote nice things in the visitors book.
