Maybe Neo-Pompeian would be better.Mark D.

Upon reflection I think I might revise my view of the colour as it certainly makes the place stand out among the lemons and apricots of the many other villas that surround it.<br />Now I have to work out how I can 'follow' blogs...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08642768891794895642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636243284078640845.post-15654712482220543942012-09-03T23:41:05.710-07:002012-09-03T23:41:05.710-07:00Hello Kirk:

For us, as clearly for you, it contains so very many wonderful treasures, that drawing room alone, but what also fascinates us is the enormous wealth and style which brought it about in the first place. As for the situation - spectacular. And we rather like its present pink colour.<br /><br />We are so very happy to have discovered your blog through the comment which you were kind enough to leave on ours.
