I receive an email from the Tate Gallery shop people. They’ve seen my earlier diary entry moaning about the lack of available postcards relating to the Gothic Nightmares show, and are happy to inform me that Fuseli’s Nightmare is now back in stock in postcard form. They even offer to send me a free card in the post, which is terribly kind.
Also, they point out that people can order ‘custom ‘prints’ of Tate Collection works that aren’t available as postcards, like the Blake ‘Satan’ I was keen on. Only thing is, prices start at £28.
It’s great when you get an email out of the blue like this from someone stumbling upon your diary.
According to the website statistics, this diary now receives 111,000 ‘hits’ a month, which boils down to 12,000 ‘visits’.
