ReplyDeleteHi Kit-
ReplyDeleteI'm so pleased you like the painting and the room--and the story.
I wrote the feature that this apartment in which this apartment in San Francisco is featured.
We should credit the architect Andrew Skurman and his wife, Francoise Skurman, who collected the painting (Cy Twombly's son), and whose heirloom silver is so beautifully displayed.
Andy commissioned the table and the chairs--and Francoise Skurman set this beautiful table with peonies!
I'm so thrilled you love it.
cheers, DIANE
