An avid collector of works of art, and long fascinated by how artists see the world, Peter Bland has drawn together poems for his 85th birthday that he's written over the years about paintings and the visual image.

Never the name-dropper or cultural snob, Bland lines up art by a child alongside art by Brueghel or Gauguin, and then takes the reader into the story of the painter or the painting, both shining new light and deepening the mystery.

Just Looking is a celebration of art and poetry, sharing insights and reflections that capture the beauty and enigma of the visual world.
