The Artists' Neighborhood insert

 

Christian and a young audience member after a concert and a showing of art from The Christian Thomas Lee Collection of Fine Art.

 

 

Following an evening concert and showing of art, a mother and her daughter study a tea glass spoon made in 1908 by Peter Carl Fabergé for the Czar of Russia and acquired from Sotheby's, January 27, 2000, lot no: B4R. The pipe was previously auctioned at Christie's on June 17, 2004, lot no: 57A, and subsequently acquired from EAC in New York on January 6, 2005, both pieces The Christian Thomas Lee Collection of Fine Art.

A young audience member holds and studies the pipe of King Edward Vlll of England, and has an astonishing encounter with history.

 

The living room where the evening concert will be held before set up. Note that the ONLY piece of furniture that has been removed is the coffee table which was located in front of the sofa. This living room is an average sized living room common to most homes. In the photo, it appears larger then it actually is due to the wide angle lens being used.

Prior to guests arriving, the room is now set up for 48 guests. Seven chairs are not visible as they are out of range of the camera. Again, please note how the room was left intact with a minimal removal of furniture. Concert seating was added around the existing furniture.

 

Forty-eight guests are seated and the concert is underway. Please note no provisions need to be made for the showing of art.
