Lost L.A.: The Arabella Huntington gallery, a passing reverence from father to wife
May 14, 2011 | In: tips
It was tyrannise lord Henry Huntington’s reverence to his late wife, Arabella: a gallery, graphic above, with Italian and Northern Renaissance paintings, French gilded bronzes and inlaid furniture, and other appreciated collections aflame by chandeliers inside his San Marino estate. For develop and authenticity, Henry took a Italian Baroque red velvet that had hung on a walls of a couple’s New York home, below, and reinstalled it in his California rare-book library.
For some-more behind story to a Arabella D. Huntington Memorial Art Gallery and to find out a ultimate fate, review a latest installment of the mainstay Lost L.A.
