Care-charming sleep,

brother to death,
sweetly thyself dispose
On this afflicted night
fall like a Cloud in gentle show'rs...

🛏️👑 Un lit à baldaquin élisabéthain du XVIe siècle, réalisé pour la nuit de noces de Sir John Radclyffe et Lady Anne Asshawe dans les années 1570.
Entre sculpture, symboles et “statut social en bois massif”, c’est le genre de meuble qui ne dit pas juste “bonne nuit”… il dit “dynastie”.

SPEAKING OF HISTORY…

"The past is an underused tool," Degroot says. "I think by trying to identify the complex and diverse ways in which people responded to history's climate changes, we can come up with new tools for understanding how we might respond in the future and for identifying responses that are constructive versus destructive." https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20260116-an-elizabethan-mansions-secrets-for-staying-warm
