Where Next?
Where Next?: The
gentleman in the picture is employed in a global banking firm that has forced
him to go on a thirty-day privilege leave failing which he forfeits it, a
company regulation. So he and his wife are pouring over a world map to decide
where to go next on their annual vacation. The woman looks as if she has picked out a
destination, perhaps the Maldives or Seychelles in
the Indian
Ocean . In his Where Next art, I’m not sure if English landscape painter Edward Frederick
Brewtnall (1846-1902) meant for the couple to visit either of the archipelagos.

Yeah, I would go for a walk on that beach. That's where next.
ReplyDeleteMe too, Charles, though I'd be content just sitting there with a good book and occasionally looking at the sea.
DeleteI have a real problem with the British aristocracy. Where next might mean what country should I lay claim to.
ReplyDeletePatti, that's certainly one way of looking at it. At some point or the other the British have laid claim to major parts of the world.
