One of my most
popular posts
on
my blog
was
my tour of the
Ringling Museum..
this year we decided to tour the house as well...
and of course..
I wanted to share the adventure with you..
I was and am overwhelmed by the amount of antique European
art and we spent the day touring..
The story of John and Mable is a sad one.
they spent only 3 seasons in the house,
before Mable died
and John's life deteriorated soon after..
but since they had no children,
we were blessed with
his gift to the state..
enjoy,
I think you will be amazed...
the Rubens cartoons in the entry
are
unbelievable ...
ciao, ciao!
