Among the 70 paintings coming to Canberra are Raphael's St Sebastian, Botticelli's The Story of Virginia the Roman and Titian's Madonna and Child.

Sounds awesome

I saw some of those paintings when I was in my late teens its well worth a trip Cam!!

It never occurred to me how lucky I was to live in America where this stuff tours all the time in almost every city near me.

Not this exact stuff, but I've seen Titian, Boticelli, etc. I never thought it as a privilege.

King Tut is coming to a museum by my in October.

I am thinking it will be worth a trip. I know my eldest will come with me, she'll be back from OS by then...and we can take the boy to all the sights down there...Government House...Questicon etc.

Kind of how I feel living half an hour away from Galleries full of this stuff in London which you can visit for free.
I guess they put it in Camberra as some incentive to actually want to visit the place! :24: Well other than to see Australian Parliment building or as Ross Noble calls it, Bilbo's house. :24:
