I wrote a post on the Bloomsbury yesterday and I hope you don't mind but I used some of your pictures of the postcards from the house to illustrate the fantastic way the Charleston home looks like. Pls let me know if you object to it and I will remove them right away.Leililaloohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01460604325042527805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1955171984639771639.post-63721569084409440932009-10-10T07:37:33.600-07:002009-10-10T07:37:33.600-07:00I just came back over to get my fill of Charleston...I just came back over to get my fill of Charleston again.

Thank you for reminding me of Charleston, it was your earlier post that inspired me to take a look! I shall enjoy sharing more in my next post, it will be a few days, once I have reluctantly settled into my new solitary lifestyle... xxLoishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18320595090342565361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1955171984639771639.post-10243090867922145542009-09-17T11:03:13.529-07:002009-09-17T11:03:13.529-07:00I forgot to mention, I love the lectern that Dunca...I forgot to mention, I love the lectern that Duncan painted! It is so beautiful. I will eagerly anticipate the sharing of this place too.

I have not been there, have only experienced it through books and photos, but it was my hope, always, that if I entered the home, this would have been the feeling and mood of the place. I think there is so much to glean from this magical place. We are all so bent, it would seem, on formulas of decorating or buying items that don't express much originality or creative spirit. Reading your interpretation of their artistic expressions and lifestyle confirmed my idea of the magic that I assumed was always present in their lives. So many of the members of Bloomsbury, instilled this pattern of thinking and freedom of expression. I think it is one of the more exciting periods of history in Modernism. Thank you England for this gift and thank you, Lois for your sensitive and accurate commentary on this wonderful subject.Phyllishttp://mendofleur.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1955171984639771639.post-40661806954629506072009-09-16T15:42:55.503-07:002009-09-16T15:42:55.503-07:00I am sure you will enjoy it when you go.

Fridays has a special 'textile tour', see website, it wasn't available on my visit, I will take it next time I visit. I am very envious of your Roger Fry textile, perhaps one day I will track a fragment down for myself! xxLoishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18320595090342565361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1955171984639771639.post-63902406018145498972009-09-14T11:17:30.588-07:002009-09-14T11:17:30.588-07:00I've been 'meaning' to visit Charlesto...I've been 'meaning' to visit Charleston for yonks. But in recent years I had been thinking maybe it was all a bit trumped up and just a couple of vaguely interesting rooms decorated by some extremely self-interested and variously talented people. I sort of still do really, even though I own a precious remnant of fabric by Roger Fry. But my interest is now revitalised by your report. I must go, and go soon!elegancemaisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10043236515999573762noreply@blogger.com
