“Paradise endangered: garden snakes and mice are appearing in the shadowy corners of Dutch Old Master paintings.”

“Finishing schools in the fifties were a good place to store girls for a few years before marrying them off, a satisfactory rest stop between college weekends spent husband hunting.

—Barbara Howar (b. 1934)
