Darren Coffield’s painting, “Blunt Adoration,” a parody of the classical ‘Adoration’ wound around Edward Snowdon’s iconic photo of Anthony Blunt examining a transparency. With its twists and turns in narrative, the painting exemplifies the current ‘Looking Glass War’ of fake news, worthy of a John Le Carré novel.

Anthony Blunt, Keeper of the Queen’s pictures and arguably the most important British art historian of the 20th Century was also a notorious spy, whose illustrious students included Nicholas Serota and Neil McGregor. When finally unmasked as a Russian agent, Blunt was protected from the press by Brian Sewell, art critic of the Evening Standard.
