Ok it's in that time
between Christmas and Easter and there isn't much to do. Lets find
one of those hidden gems that London is so good at. A suprise really
a city the size of london and it is full of hidden places that only
a select few seem to know about. Two Temple place is just one such
place.
Two temple Place is an
old Gothic house that sits tucked away between Temple Tube station
and Middle Temple just off the Embankment with a view of the river.
In the winter it holds an exhibition on a theme or subject and the
works are rarely seen works from public collections from al over the
UK. I found out about these exhibitions and so Two temple Place from
the magazine that comes with the Art Pass called Art Quarterly and so
this year I kept a look out to see what exhibition was on this
season.
So now
you know I have visited two exhibitions here. This years JohnRuskin: The Power of Seeing
and back n 2018, the one that really caught my eye Rhythm& Reaction: The Age of Jazz. I knew this one is one my wife
would like.
The
atmosphere is unique with small rooms and floorboards that creak and
for the feeling of both an old grand house of London and an art
gallery. It was like stepping into another world, A different age.
The
cafe was great small but friendly with a separate area when the cafe
bit was full. It had the feeling of an old Oxbridge college refectory
but very much in the modern age with its menu even though we only
had coffee.
I'm
glad I found this hidden gem of London and look forward to visiting
again. With its quirky atmosphere and friendly staff and most of all
it's interesting exhibitions and architecture.
Prove
that looking for those hidden gems is sometimes worth it.
