The beeb may be ‘correct’ about the artist’s intention, but intention or not, I disagree.
As someone who has loved this painting since the first time I saw it, I agree with Q and the others that, progress aside, the image that shines through is one of fading glory being taken to oblivion by a harsh future.
Or perhaps that’s just my inner Tolkien speaking. I have the feeling he would agree with that sentiment. But then again, he was a rather nostalgic fellow, wansn’t he?
