To the William Blake show at Cambridge's Fitzwilliam Museum - a really interestingly curated show that brought out Blake's intellectual and visual connections both with Europe and America, and with the theme of revolution more widely still. There was (probably because the exhibition is moving on to Hamburg) a good deal of Philipp Otto Runge (I saw a big Runge show there in maybe 1979, and vividly remembered the large and weird painting with peonies and (not visible here) lots of cherubs, though the owl was new to me.
Also - Cambridge gardens, and tulips: it was another summer's day.
