Yesterday Rachel, our registrar, showed me that Desperate Housewives (season 4 episode 6 ) are quite fond of the art from the Auckland Art Gallery. In the background, behind Brie, looks suspiciously like (a copy of) our very own Frank Bramley painting For of such is the Kingdom of Heaven 1891. We had not heard from them requesting a reproduction order but presume that the letter is in the post!
