It's raining. That's good for the garden but it's not good for me. The weather is not good for walking around the garden. What can I do? I like a quiz, therefore I'll write a little quiz for you. Who is the man in the portrait, called the "Cornish Wonder"? He was a Cornishman, son of a mine carpenter, born in 1761, in Trevellas near St Agnes. He was an artist, known for portraits and historical paintings (e.g.The Murder of Rizzio). He died in April 1807. He was not buried in Cornwall but in London, in St Paul's Cathedral. Who is he? Answer tomorrow!
