A visit to Chichester - Day 1

A two day trip to Chichester to visit the Pallant House Gallery for a really interesting exhibition of paintings by Degas, Cezanne, Matisse and Picasso.

I was well worth the trip, but what amused us was the graffiti street art around the town.  I was very taken with this little child loosing their EU balloon, interesting dog, and a "kill the bill".

There was also a statue of Horatio Nelson and his good friend George Murray, who missed the Battle of Trafalgar because he was sorting out his father-in-law's estate.  He eventually becamse a Rear Admiral and then Mayor of Chichester.

Finally, along East Street was this recent bench sculpture.  On a lot of the pieces of metal that make up the person are the names of individuals and professions.  I liked the inscription too.

More plans for tomorrow!
