In November 2022, I visited the @Rijksmuseum three times. I went searching for landscapes and seascapes, sculptures, painting and etchings, real from memory or imagined, of a place in time. I picked ten and I wrote something about each one and then a song to accompany it. 

The songs that feature:
1. Soft Meadow - Green House
2. The Endless Sea - Iggy Pop
3. Dunwich Beach, Autumn, 1960 - Brian Eno
4. The Beachland Ballroom - IDLES
5. View from My Window - Hiroshi Yoshimura
6. The Garden - Einstürzende Neubaten
7. The Ship Song - Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds
8. A Brand New City - Cosmo Vitelli, Fantastic Twins
9. Inheritance - Lord of the Isles, Ellen Renton
10. At Home He's a Tourist - Gang of Four
11. Land: Horses / Land of a Thousand Dances / La Mer(de) - Patti Smith
