EDWARD-DEAN

The large picture at the bottom of the blog is from the Edward-Dean Museum in Cherry Valley.  The scene is of the Pine Room.  I did a video of this place a couple of years ago - you can watch it at www.sbsun.com/trevorstreasures or from my Web site.

The museum is a very elegant place to visit and was the country home of these two men who were Hollywood collectors and antique dealers in the 50's.

I have a personal link with the Pine Room as the paneling came from Cassiobury House in Watford.  The house had been leveled by the time I was born, but the park, which was part of the Earl of Clarendon's estate since the time of Henry VIII, was a place I knew well growing up as a boy.
