Passed this proud yet sad wreck of what I believe was the last working steamship in Ireland: the steam dredger Port Láirge (Or as per the bow “Portlairge”, meaning “Waterford” as Gaeilge) in Saltmills, Wexford on my run tonight.

Anyone?
A mere preliminary sketch of the productivity-gobbling art treasurhouse on offer at Great Art In Ugly Rooms – a Tumblr wherein great art is observed situated in ugly rooms.
