Our Banksy: The John Britton Painting(s)

On a website Painters Online, Geoff McCormick found a wonderful painting of the Girls' Gate at the front of the school. It was online in the name of "John Britton". After some fumbling around, not realising who it was, we realized this was OUR John Britton (62-69), known to many of us, and already featuring on our web page ! John was a standout mathematician in his days at EGS, but pottered around with art "for fun". Apologies for being slow, John ... we're old ! The website noted above has several other of John's paintings, all in a wonderful, distinctively bold and colourful style. You'll enjoy them for sure, though the "Girls Gate" has special meaning to us, of course.
