We’re all still talking about the the new exhibition in Gallery Number One: Pattie Boyd- Life Through the Eyes of a Muse, which opened last night. Pattie Boyd, rock legend muse to George Harrison and Eric Clapton, the inspiration for the masterpiece songs “Something”, “Layla”, and “Wonderful Tonight”, is exhibiting photographs taken during her days with Harrison and Clapton, in Gallery Number One until September 5th. Boyd is an author and photographer who’s extraordinary life is documented in both her autobiography “Wonderful Tonight: George Harrison, Eric Clapton, And Me” and fine art photographs.
