again (of course) another album bought when it came out and cherished for the longest time and of course I knew Tom Phillips’ work and that Brian had chosen a work of his for his album cover but it was only yesterday I bumped into the Tom Phillips original and whilst it is not a favourite of his, it suddenly struck me to included the source from the School Of Raphael for the original upon which Tom based his compositional study to view and compare
Brian Eno, Another Green World, 1975
Votive Picture: School of Raphael
Umbrian School Walker Art Gallery Liverpool
I am pretty sure Tom studied the original in the Walker Art Gallery and Brian and Tom go way back and I think Tom has even painted an early portrait of him
so there you are . . . . .
