Which one’s which: To paraphrase Loïc Prigent: Jack is the cute one and Lazaro is the cute one.
Division of labor: They sketch separately and compare notes.

We are saddened to announce the passing of a member of our family this past Sunday April 21, legendary Louis owner Murray Pearlstein. In the late 1960s, Pearlstein transformed our iconic store (founded by his father and uncle) as a buyer by importing Europe’s premier designers. In the 1990s he consolidated Louis’ several Boston area and Manhattan outposts into the monumental building on Boylston Street, formerly home to the Museum of Natural History. Over the years Pearlstein was the recipient of numerous international awards for Louis. He was widely respected by his colleagues and was known internationally as a “buyer’s buyer” for his keen and discerning eye for quality and craftsmanship. His innovation has made a lasting impression on the industry.
I’ve just lost forty minutes in the photo gallery of the Martin & Osa Johnson Safari Museum. The Johnsons were a Kansas couple who adventured their way through the 1920s and 30s, making some of the first wildlife documentaries on film and photographing both people and animals. Their book was called “I Married Adventure.” Wonderful.
I’ll admit it: I do love a good safari outfit.
