The dollhouse is great and I loved the pictures you put in this post. the use of color is incredible. It is such a shame that beautiful library was destroyed. Here's hoping they will be able to rebuild and salvage more then they hoped.<br />Big hug,<br />GiacGiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04823654482564548862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708828566635042112.post-34526594342578485922014-06-13T12:36:32.875+01:002014-06-13T12:36:32.875+01:00I love Jessie King's dolls house - I had not s...I love Jessie King's dolls house - I had not seen the photo of it in the exhibition before, really great to see it in the context it was designed in - and colour designs for the walls too! It must have been stunning. Nor had I seen the other things she designed and illustrated. Her paintings are so vivid and full of life and movement, just gorgeous! I too would like to see inside her dolls house - I wonder if she decorated the interior, and if it is full of rich colours like her other designs? I've always imagined it as stark white, like some of CRM's interiors.<br /><br />So sad to see the photos of the aftermath of the fire. How one could salvage anything from that, I can't imagine. However, I am sure they have photos and perhaps plans from which they can recreate it.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11859849266660930171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708828566635042112.post-82100721241870667622014-06-13T12:08:48.706+01:002014-06-13T12:08:48.706+01:00Thanks Andy, for such an informative post.
