little augury: it's over

31 October 2014

it's over

the end to a hectic month, the exodus of extended daylight.
the beginning of brisk November days, the glow of a lamp in the window casting off the gloom of nightfall.

"An October Evening" by Sir John Lavery

Upcoming: Books to buy for the holidays, Announcements, & Friends drop in.

It seems universal that we like pictures and paintings of windows, and I guess if we're lucky enough, like the windows themselves.

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.
