roses–and–rue:

A newly rediscovered painting by Francisco Goya, lost since 1928, has just been unveiled to the public for the first time at the Museum of Zaragoza. It is called “Ghostly Vision.”

Arturo Ansón, the art historian who discovered the small painting and established its provenance, believes it was painted in 1801.

First images of Ruth Negga as Hamlet (Gate Theater Dublin, 27 Sept-13 Oct 2018)

“Negga is a princely Hamlet, full of gracious entitlement, capricious
and deeply wounded. This is a gruelling performance; three-and-a-half
hours, with Hamlet on stage most of the time, other than a brief respite
in Act Four.

Negga combines vulnerability and ruthlessness, her tiny frame
asserting its dominance of the action throughout by theatrical force of
will. She brings a freshness to these oh-so-familiar speeches. “ (x)
