Did you know that the lady featured in “Love’s Oracle” by acclaimed German painter Albert Ritzberger has six fingers? This was kindly pointed out to me by a very articulate gallery staff member during my recent visit to Nottingham Castle Museum.
Another special mention is that if you look close enough, well this is quite apparent after revelation – but yes, if you look close enough, all four faces in the painting are apparently the same – albeit with different expressions.
This is a special painting. Certainly one to check next time you’re in Nottingham.
