London paintings

 The Bruegels were so small, like little jewels, any piece of the painting could be a painting, the serene teaching from the boat and the disaster at sea

the mandala of the ancient cephlapod

 This was not even a painting, it was a repainting of an ancient roman design

 Pre-Raphaelite landscape, the artist put himself in there somewhere

 Pre-Raphaelite fragment, and a tapestry, something to the effect of love leading the pilgrim through the forest

 The Titian Bacchus and Ariadne, some kind of sad story, apparently Ariadne had been abandoned by Theseus on an island when Bacchus showed up on his chariot pulled by cheetahs, along with his entourage of rather scary characters...

 the Turners, two of the Turners

collections

 in the winter, this view looks a little like a Bruegel painting, now with a dinosaur, tent made out of leaves and a little black bear.

other mythical collections

 including  dioramas of Antarctica, from the London Museum of Natural History, from the penguins point of view

 and collections of fossils, rocks and leaves on a Sunday afternoon in Kensington
