Delftware tile - Rabbets O!

Delftware tile - Rabbets O!

One of the many new 'Delft' tiles (actually paintings on panel and not ceramic!) I have created for my Umbra Sumus (We Are But Shadows) solo show opening tonight and running for this week-end only (April 27 - 29 inclusive) in Spitalfields.

This tile shows one of the ancient Street Cries of old London Town. This fellow is selling Rabbits he'd caught that week upon Hampstead Heath, along with hordes of other street-sellers all vying for attention.

Who will buy....?

Here's Nancy Sinatra 'avin' a bash at it
