The Judges were evidently all agreed on who was the winner of the move past times prize.

The viaduct inwards the ikon is a perennial motif of Mr Mirecki - I've seen it inwards his paintings inwards to a greater extent than than a few exhibitions over the years. However I produce intend this is the best ikon of this stance that I've seen him do. It had layers of involvement from a potent composition in addition to draughtsmanship through to an entrancing in addition to complicated foreground in addition to exquisite command over the watercolour painting.
