Zhou Guanyu has been enjoying his time at Kelvingrove museum! Out of all the exhibits he thought the Dali painting was the most impressive but thought the animal exhibits were out of this world.

Laggan Farm Buildings near Dalbeattie by Samuel John Peploe (Scottish, 1871-1935), oil on panel c. 1916
I saw this painting at Kelvingrove this summer. It is a small thing (less than 30*40 cm) but I was utterly captured by it. This photo from artuk.org really does not do it justice, neither does this detail close up I took but it does a somewhat better job at showing the incredible quality of stroke:

People’s works seem to me to hit a perfect balance between smooth clarity of image, and depth in both colour and impasto. Perhaps I am so impressed by this painting because it hits so much of what I struggle with myself; the vivid yet immensely readable colour, the sharp discipline and economy of stroke that is nonetheless loose and playful, the precise use of linework. It is a wonderful painting.

Harquebusier Armour from England dated to about 1680 on display at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow, Scotland
During the 17th century harquebusier cavalry were some of the most common in European armies. They were named after the carbine musket they used, the "harquebus" a shorter musket than the ones used by infantry. By 1680 though the Royal Scottish and English armies (later unified as the British Army) were converting these units in regiments of dragoons, mounted infantry who could also charge as cavalry. The armour was phased out of British cavalry regiments by the time of the 18th century.
