THE waiting rooms of the Oxford Eye Hospital have been given a facelift with the introduction of classic art from the Ashmolean Museum. Artist Nicky Hirst has wallpapered walls with images of skies taken from paintings in the museum's collections. Reproductions are also displayed to explain where the images have come from. Arts co-ordinator, Ruth Charity, said: "We are grateful for the generosity of our donors and the Ashmolean Museum, which waived its reproduction fee." The paintings used are The White Cloud by Samuel Palmer, Gravel Pit on Shotover Hill, near Oxford by William Turner of Oxford and Summer Sunset attributed to John Constable.
