The Chapel, Old Royal Naval College Greenwich

I have always admired artists who paint night scenes, a particularly difficult exercise since the human eye uses a different mechanism by night. The best exponent of the "Nocturn" I have come across is the Yorkshireman John Atkinson Grimshaw, a mid Victorian painter who loved to simulate moonlit city street scenes.

As a member of the Old Royal Naval College Art Club I visit Greenwich often so the fantastic Wren architecture seemed an obvious subject choice.
