 Got to visit the Dallas art museum where the majority of my great grandmothers paintings were donated (a few went to Winston Churchill as they were close friends)

@Eshara you would have loved it. https://image.nostr.build/8360b37f7a149e6c2e7c04b8d0401735a4ae5a7b76f550b8a4dad8597c96e709.jpg https://i.nostr.build/BvrKyDIv7nfATBaR.jpg https://i.nostr.build/ZiUKeJ1dh2R5SmuD.jpg https://i.nostr.build/sH4GVXXG4JC7lxEv.jpg https://i.nostr.build/EuTlUlt1y3CPbbH1.jpg https://i.nostr.build/pLLHESAkLnrRNu6q.jpg https://i.nostr.build/ODQVXMHdSycLNksk.jpg https://i.nostr.build/TybwNC9anMUQkSsi.jpg

 Your great grandmother had style. I can only imagine how beautiful her home was.

 This was her house in France, it was designed and built by coco Chanel.  This was also donated to charity when she passed.

 It's quite remarkable to think of all the people who came before us and overcame so many challenges so we could be here today, writing notes. 

It's an honor to share this moment of history with you.

 That's awesome! You should totally check it out.  The main re-creation of her house in France is closed till next year but most of the paintings were moved to the impressionist era collection.

 I went to Dallas last month and my brother insisted we go to the Kennedy Assassination Museum. I would have much rather gone to the Dallas Art Musuem, I would have loved to have seen those in person.

 They'll be up for awhile until the main display room is done next year, so you got some time 🤙🏻

 Glad you liked them 🥰 not to be outdone her husband Emory wrote the book "the anatomy of peace" which you might enjoy also. He was one of the architects of the United Nations.  I love European history.
