Longing for a change of scene? Dreaming of Tuscan hillsides, Spanish beaches or the vineyards of the South of France? Holidays abroad perhaps seem a little out of reach for many of us this year but all is not lost. Wonderful art can be a doorway to the world. Browse our beautiful paintings, close your eyes and let your mind wander. Meander through the streets of medieval French towns, feel the heat of the North African sun, see the sun glinting on the canals of Venice... Imagination can take you anywhere and everywhere.
