You'll have noticed I'm introducing a few new regular slots on the blog - the mid-week Think Tank Roundups and my Head-to-Head pieces being the recent examples. I still plan to post regular content as and when stories take my interest but I guess these are just my efforts to counter the fact that I have a day job and so can't sit and react to stories that break or every little bit of gossip that emerges elsewhere.Since I love art I'm going to try and do a short daily 'Gallery' post - few, if any, words and just a painting or piece of art that has some resonance or link to contemporary events. To kick of today 'The Camden Town Murder' by Walter Sickert, linked for a variety of reasons to the 'Jack the Ripper' case and brought to mind by two horrible stories over the last few days.....

Yes and he is of course one of the suspects in the Jack The Ripper mythology .I saw a few of his drawings in New York in the Frick museum ..somewhat creepy.
Don`t miss it if you are in NY especially if you like Whistler.
Top idea and good start.
