Wallpaper

We had this wallpaper on one wall and the soffits in the kitchen of our house on Lorraine Street. It was called Medici. We loved it--the people and their clothing, the busyness of it, and because it had so much for your eyes to see and learn about those times. 

About a year after we sold that house the new owner invited me in to see the changes they had made. The wallpaper was gone. No surprise, I guess. It was not something everyone would like; somebody said it was too many eyes looking at them. But taking down that wallpaper was the only change the owners made that I felt sad about.
