Harry Pearce has pointed out to me that not only is he busy designing the page layout of my book, but that he has been a tiny bit distracted by the launch of the new Thames & Hudson visual identity, which he has done with characteristic precision and discretion, just tightening it up, but retaining a strong sense of its history. It has the same characteristic as the work he did for the RA, being so thoughtful, so obviously correct, that the untutored eye might not notice it, which is surely the ultimate compliment.

Dear Charles
I thought Mark Fisher died in 2017 or is this someone else ?

He’s alive and I hope well, although I see him less often now I’m no longer at the RA, where he was a vital supporter. Charles
Mark Fisher the critic died in 2017. Another Mr Fisher.
Yes, the MP and former Minister of the Arts. Charles
In a rather undistinguished roster over the years, he stands out as someone who actually likes and knows something about the arts.
Yes, and poetry about which he is writing a book (and museums, about which he already has). Charles
