Although we have plenty of satirists now, we still need another Hogarth with his deft touch in making sure that nothing goes unobserved, and that no pretense escapes unpunctured.

Marriage images...what makes it exclusive? Timeless stories, different surroundings and every image has some weird detail. Thank you for challenging my mind, my soul, my aesthetics every time I open your blog.

I know you meant :Marriage" no one has told you......there is a tip....."Mirage" is what is in the title page......which is not what you mean at all; I fear!
Is it a "Freudian slip"

I think not! I do want you to know that in the title page......it is "mirage" and you meant, I think, "marriage" YES???

My book HOW THEY DECORATED, for Rizzoli, was published in April of 2017. I have been an interior designer for over 30 years & have an abiding passion for the original, & history. Little Augury was born on New Year's Eve 2008. It began as a way of continuing a conversation with a beloved mentor & the promise to keep just a bit of his wit & wisdom alive by sharing it whenever possible. Little Augury focuses on interior design, art, literature, fashion & social history with an eye, always looking back to the past, in hope of understanding what is authentic & what will endure & what connects us to our environment. Always listening for the footstep on the old stair-the sound of lives that walked that way.
