I just read an interview with him on another blog (one I rarely visit) at the suggestion of a colleague. You MUST read it -- and I trust you'll be as moved as I was! It's no wonder the likes of Paul and Bunny Mellon kept him so close! The images of his apartment are no less than gorgeous. Visit www.markdsikes.com ...

I'd love to attend any of these shows if I were there (one day, one day!). Your choice of restaurant looks divine, and straight out of the Left Bank.<br /><br />I do very much hope that Monticello is in with a fighting chance to bid and win even a few of the Chinese export porcelain pieces, that rightly belong there. When I visited last summer, The Thomas Jefferson Foundation had just acquired a table at a local auction that was originally displayed in the parlor at Monticello. The very clever fellow that spotted it (one of the historians/researchers working<br />at Monticello), obviously knew what is was from the very detailed furniture itinerary that Jefferson kept, but the auctioneers did not. <br /><br />I look forward to reading more on your adventures this week.LizaEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17324813392045814368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-52486562924918567562013-01-23T13:43:33.942-05:002013-01-23T13:43:33.942-05:00Reggie, it seems that Antiques Week is always the ...Reggie, it seems that Antiques Week is always the coldest week of the year in NYC and that this time will not be an exception.
