Re: [lace] Vemeer

Hello Rose,

The painting is fantastic. I love Vermeer. And to your observation I want
to add that I imagine that this system of heating was used by many people
in those times, including, possibly, lacemakers.

Here in Spain, for example, many years later (around 1950), my mother, who
was a school teacher in a small rural village in the center of Spain, had a
tin with hot coal or wood, and also with holes. Everyday a different child
had to take this heater from home to heat the school room! A big difference
with today!

Best wishes and a HAPPY NEW YEAR full of bobbin lace projects to all
Arachneans!!
