Part of Leonard Rosoman's wonderful mural 'Upstairs and Downstairs' in the #royalacademyofarts cafe- which never fails to raise my spirits!- and a lovely preparatory study also in the RA collection.
A current favourite from the #royalacademyofarts collection currently on display, 'Through the Looking Glass' by Jean Cooke (note the reflected self-portrait amongst the flowers!)

'The greatest painting in the world' in Lucian Freud's words- Constable's 'The Leaping Horse' is currently on loan from the #royalacademyofarts to the Turner & Constable exhibition at Tate Britain.
On the subject of Goldfinger, he presented this design for Trellick Tower to the #royalacademyofarts after he was elected as an Academician: www.royalacademy.org.uk/art-artists/...
When I first worked at the #royalacademyofarts, the French Railways House over the road on Piccadilly still had Ernö Goldfinger's signage- the site looks very different now. The RA paid homage to the signage in this display in 2014: www.royalacademy.org.uk/exhibition/s...

Visiting #batterseapowerstation yesterday reminded me of this work by Giles Gilbert Scott in the #royalacademyofarts collection- a fantastic interior of Liverpool Cathedral
A favourite seasonal artwork in the #royalacademyofarts collection- and one surely known to @paintingsoflondon.bsky.social - Robert Buhler, 'Green Park', 1947
