You've got to be lucky or very regular in the gallery in Birmingham to see these. I managed to catch them when the were last out (every 4 or 5 years for a few weeks) - they're rather wonderful.

Haven't been to Birmingham for some years. I'm glad you managed to see them though. Like going to the theatre, paintingsare better live.
