Mary Lattimore: “Evening Song”

Curious provenance to this harp ditty “Evening Song” by Mary Lattimore:

“Last year, I was asked by the wonderful Studio Blanco to create a site-specific piece for Milan Design Week. The installation was held in the historic home of poet Alessandro Manzoni and the piece was inspired by his most famous novel ‘The Betrothed’.”

Nice work, if you can get it. Although I hear terrible things about this novel. Specifically, Google reviewer Alix NOGA remarks:

“Les caractères de l impression sont trop petits. Il faut avoir recours à une loupe pour lire ce livre?”

Which translates to:

“The print is too small. You need a magnifying glass to read this book.”

Scathing.

Stream, share, buy to your heart’s content.
