Downton Abbey show


The July 9 edition of the Wall Street Journal had a review ("Upstairs Timelessness, Downstairs Precision") about the Downton Abbey exhibit at Winterthur. "What makes this exhibition special is the added dimension that Winterthur brings to it," writes Laura Jacobs. "While delineating early-20th-century life in the fictional Downtown Abbey, the curators tell of a parallel life, during the same years, at Winterthur."
I loved the exhibit, and at lunch at Philter few weeks ago I was telling a friend about it, perhaps a bit too loudly. The woman at the next table came over to us and apologized for interrupting but said she simply had to say how much she, too, enjoyed the show.
