Your regular reminder the British Library remains unable to give access to the vast majority of its priceless & irreplaceable digital collection nearly 18 months after the cyberattack. And it suits our politicians & media to look the other way even as they spout nonsense about UK prowess in tech.

'Jeune paysanne Bretonne.' In the early 1890s Roderic O’Conor painted many portraits of Breton women involved in domestic tasks. Here he has used slightly exaggerated colours inspired by the paintings of his friend Gauguin and a striping method inspired by van Gogh.
