Why Robyn Hitchcock loves De Chirico?


Maybe not a great likeness between the photos but Imagine Robyn a decade or two younger and with sunglasses. . The De Chirico painting is in the Modern Art collection at the Pompidou centre in Paris. See yesterday's Seven Songs post for a version of Robyn's wonderfully surreal song De Chirico Street

LOL! We have several De Chirico paintings in the Menil Collection here in Houston; I'll have to look to see if there are any more instances of Robyn in them.

One of my best friends in high school lived on DeChirico Street. Of course the surrounding streets all have names like Klee, Chagall, and Monet sooooooooo

Wow that's a cultural place. I live in an area with writers for street names
