Silver art and silk art, yes; architecture, rarely. So your post, and in particular the photos, give us more visual proof of Huguenot taste. thanks for the link Hels http://melbourneblogger.blogspot.com/2010/11/huguenot-architecture-in-1696-eggington.html It has been very difficult for me to find written material on Huguenot houses, immediately after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685.

I haven't been to New York, however, and really hope to do that one of these days. I live on the West Coast...we obviously don't have historic buildings like these. :-0 Blessings, Spencer Like Brittany Noel, I’ve been to Greenfield Village….what a fabulous place.
