One of the jewels of Southern California is the Huntington Library and Museum in San Marino. It was the home of the Huntington's around the 1900's, and where they housed their huge art, furniture and manuscript collection. It also has several formal gardens. This is the actual library which houses a genuine Guggenheim bible. On this visit I was able to enjoy the house they lived in and it was there I saw Gainsborough's "Blue Boy" and also Thomas Lawrence's "Pinky," both masterpieces. You can read the entire column at
