These are not the original titles or colours of these De Waal exhibits. The lighting in Waddesdon was odd as it was so hot that they had blinds down everywhere. I altered the colours and came across this effect, created by the spotlights.

Authentic title of the whole exhibition is ‘We Live Here, Forever Taking Leave.’ Based on a quotation from Rilke.

So, a new perspective!
