HOME & GARDEN “My daughter (Stephanie Cater) gave this chinoiserie to me.”
“I really like a formal dining room. I remember when I had everything crammed into it and wanted to add on (to the house).”
“It’s Mexican. You know girls and horses … I like horses.”
“My husband (William) built (this harpsichord) and played it. He was a man of many talents.”
“Almost all of the paintings are done by my late husband, William. Every time I had a new hat on, he’d say, ‘Oh, I have to paint you.’”
“This was one of the first pieces of art I purchased after my husband died. It’s by Chicago artist Peter Locascio.”
“The tile on the steps is something I liked very much about the house.”
