After brunch we stopped by the Jean Prouve’s Maison Tropicale, which was set up temporarily under the Queensboro Bridge. Christie’s sold the structure, which is a prototype built in 1950-51 by the French architect and designer Jean Prouve. It went for $4-6 million.
Tien has more photographs and information on his site. Also, I was still using his 50mm lens in these photos.
R, tell Jessica I love her hair. LOVE IT. And then say hi to both Jessica and Jeannette from me!
