On her gallery wall she has a pencil drawing done by Alexander McQueen, purchased at an auction, and both girls inherited the Andy Warhol silkscreen of Marilyn Monroe from their parents. The walls of Antonia’s dining area display a series painted by Robert Stanley around 1970 featuring her father, mother and half brother and sister (the girls’ father had been previously married). The series also includes a painting of their father’s first wife; her mother painted a panel of herself after the two married. “Apparently, when my mother married my father, she painted herself in the family both literally and figuratively,” laughs Antonia; her mother also reproduced all the images in the series so that there were enough for all respective families to hang.
