By Tamara de Lempicka, noted for her sinuous Art Deco figures.
Who knew she painted so many still lives
Much less cauliflower so beautifully.
This sent me down a cauliflower rabbit 🐇 hole.
And looking at scrumptious cauliflower recipes on Instagram. Do you have a special recipe for me? I have NEVER a made it!
As we waltzed around the ultra modern rooms of PAD Paris…
There was an interesting ‘Goldilocks’ chair 🪑 challenge going on.
Were these chairs
Even meant for sitting, like this Swiss 🧀 cheese number?
Placed a spikey thistle on their chair as a warning not to sit down.
Very low perhaps for your dog’s 🐶 waterbowl?

Thank you Rosemary ❤️
Your lovely photo of the Place Vendôme looks very similar to a nights scene by Edouard Cortèz --except for the tree!
ReplyDeleteThank you BTournier! I did not know of Edouard Cortes before. Charming!
DeleteLoved everything about this post. All the paintings and unique styled furniture. I love your humor Carol in reference to sitting down "even if you may require instructions". I laughed out loud. As always thank you for bringing Paris to us. -Suzanne P.
ReplyDeleteDelightful- that exhibit looks like so much fun. I do wonder how the elderly would get up from the very low couch. Furniture very often seems to be made for looks rather than using. Odd.
ReplyDeleteDelightful outing, Carol! My house feels quite pedestrian compared with all that fabulous furniture. And your stroll post PAD was fun. Today is Eastern Orthodox Easter, so not surprising the chocolate bunnies are still out. I wish they’d keep them in the windows till July!
ReplyDeleteAgain you take us by hand to places most of us will never enter.
ReplyDeleteDo you feel that every day you can be in a “new” Paris? It can’t possibly get stale because the creatives are constantly making new meaning out of the ordinary and the outrageous?
The 'furniture' was so interesting but you would need a large space to place it in. It is always interesting to me to imagine a piece I do need but never can find it..being unable to create something myself except a lamp from a Chinese basket ages ago when a do it yourself magazine in the 70s had instructions. Lovely to stop for tea and a view! Miss Paris!
