I am playing host to Cesar and his friends from Poland for the York Viking Festival. As a suprise present Cesar arranged a fantastic original artwork for me from Mariusz Kozik http://www.lacedemon.info/
It shows me as a hoplite fighting somewhere in northern Greece. It took months to do and I feel very graetful and yet very embarrassed at the same time. It is very "in your face", and rather dominates the living room, the downstairs and the entire house.
