Last week i went to an exhibition of paintings at the Tate Gallery in London. i'm not really a great art lover but i'd read good reviews of an exhibition and i was keen to see it. when i arrived , there were already people waiting outside for doors to open. i joined a queue and in the end doors opened and we went inside to see a show.
now, i must be honest and admit that many of paintings disappointed me.
Although i spend time looking carefully at each on, i had a difficulty in understanding what an artist was getting at. finally, as i was looking at one of paintings and trying to decide if it was a right way up or not, a old gentleman came up behind me and started to explain a whole thing to me. he kindly answered all of my questions and we talked for over an hour. then he said he had an appointment and had to go, so we shook hands and said goodbye. i went round the gallery once more and now i found that all paintings seemed really beautiful.
it was only as i was leaving the gallery that i found out who an old men was self-portrait was on posters advertising an exhibition!
