Discworld at Worcester Art Gallery

[smallhobbit]

Yesterday we went to Worcester Art Gallery, where they currently have an exhibition of Paul Kidby's Illustrations.

The Massive Massif



Here is the Discworld:

   

With some of my favourite characters - firstly The Watch

   

Then Death and the Librarian

   

And some reworkings of classic paintings: Mr and Mrs Vimes; Troll with a Skull Earring

What an awesome exhibit!

[smallhobbit]

It was definitely worth going to - I took more photos, but here I've chosen my favourites, mainly because of the subject matter.

Very good choices! Death and the Librarian are two of my favourite characters, and I see you got Lady Sybil with a couple of dragons.

What a lovely exhibit to get to attend. I particularly love the reworkings!

[smallhobbit]

Yes, J had pointed it out a couple of months ago, but I'd forgotten, so when he suggested going I was all for it. The reworkings are so clever :)

[smallhobbit]

It was well worth visiting :)

I love that Librarian, particularly. What a great exhibition to have the chance to catch! Envy!

I'm very fond of the Librarian. Yes, it was a great exhibition, I was really pleased to see it.

Ook!

Oh wow

[smallhobbit]

Thank you 😁

Oh, how wonderful! I wish I could have seen it, but the virtual trip you offer is a delight in itself. I particularly love Death as a character, as well as all the Guards books, so this is wonderful.

Thank you! Lovely start to the day. And now I shall go and do the big weekend shop. I shall not flop down with either Soul Music or Reaper Man or even Hogswatch. Indeed, I shall not.

It was a great collection, and I've only shown my own favourite characters! Yes, do do your shopping and resist that particular lure 😆
