You make me think I should be writing this about the bars in Westport, rather than about this house. There were a couple of bars across from the train station where many illustrators would stop to drink when they got done drinking on the commuter train from New York (which I understand had a bar car in the old days). There was a lot of great memorabilia there, but the old ones have closed down.

It has put me in mind, in a very convoluted way, of a sign that was above the bar in a pub frequented by art students from the Slade. Bill Coldstream, a famous art tutor there, was infuriated by the sign which read; "an artist is not a special kind of man but every man is a special kind of artist". Bill turned to his friend and said; 'They might as well put "a pub is not a special kind of house, but every house is a special kind of pub."'chris bennetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02088693067960235141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12189014.post-16815216087032725332017-05-21T17:22:10.468-04:002017-05-21T17:22:10.468-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.chris bennetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02088693067960235141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12189014.post-10607754490055585782017-05-20T20:27:27.888-04:002017-05-20T20:27:27.888-04:00Fucking yuppie bankers.Fucking yuppie bankers.MORANnoreply@blogger.com
