The River Thames 2012
The Thames and the City by Canaletto, 1847
Thames Jubilee pageant 2012
Sunday 3rd June, 2012 and the Queen's Diamond Jubilee (only the second one in history). To celebrate, the famous Thames flotilla scene painted by Canaletto all those years ago has been recreated and Dai Jakes thinks that whoever had this idea deserves a few drinks. We're all part of history today dear readers, this won't ever happen again. Wonderful scenes!
