Stay in your seats

Now that we're gearing up to get the Gazetteer completed before the end of the year, it's an opportunity to go through the files and admire some of the incredible paintings Martin has already done for it. Try this one - an hommage to the classic Dr Who adventure "Talons of Weng Chiang", as well as a salutary lesson to the stage magicians of the Edwardian music hall not to put on too spectacular a performance in a year when the miraculous is as common as card tricks. Derren Brown would get burned at the stake!

  4. DWC, if we only learned one thing while working on Mirabilis, it's how to spell gazetteer. Though in Jack's and Estelle's day, "gazetteer" meant somebody who wrote for a gazette.
