Diners at The Volunteer Rifleman's Arms

This image lacks the painting quality of the two photographs that precede it although the dark tones are a bit Rembrandtish. This photograph was taken in a dark passageway. The centre of Bath has several small pubs. This one is tucked away on Union Passage -a pedestrian only street. The couple were sitting outside on a rather chilly night because the small pub was filled with patrons. As they huddle together on the bench, suggesting intimacy, his straightforward gaze suggests a certain distance.
