Gift Shop, Ashmoleum, OXFORD

The Ashmoleum is a massive gallery/museum so i went to their gift shop to find their greatest hits and see what they sell lots of in the postcard department. That way i could see what was on display without running through the galleries (only had limited time).

I liked the woman working there, an efficent officey outfit. She sorted out the postcards after i had chosen one.

I chose the one below as it's by Holbein the Younger and it is 'Figure of an Englishwoman in contemporary dress' and is very much like what i have been trying to do with the blog.

I think i might print a few of these off and slip them into the postcard rack and see if she finds them. Might be fun (for me, unsettling for her).
