  Its company director said that although the direct reason was a redevelopment scheme by the landlord, the store couldn’t find another place in the West End. She said, “At present, an independent store owner can be paying well over half-a-million pounds per year in rates and rents to take over an empty unit without stairs or fitted toilets. … That’s before you’ve done the flooring, fitted it out, hired staff and taken a single sale.” – The Stage (UK)

They took the rapist to court, where she, an artist, was tortured to see if she was telling the truth, and he never served any time. But she absolutely persisted, becoming the first woman member of Florence’s Accademia. Some (who knows? Perhaps many) of her paintings have been attributed to other, male artists, with one only rediscovered in the last two years. – The Observer (UK)
