Hey, I'm impressed with Martin Kemp. Who'd have thought that he'd have time to become a Renaissance art historian in between being bass guitarist in Spandau Ballet and playing East End gangsters. ;)

Sorry - me being facetious(slaps wrist), but I bet he gets that ALL the time!

Bty, if you want to view the article Ceri mentions off campus, you'll need to login to Athens first.
