Showcases some of the work rendered by American interior designer Dorothy Draper (1889-1969), who during the 1930s and 1940s was the country's most famous decorator. Written by fellow decorator Carleton Varney, who worked with Draper and inherited her archives. "Documents both her familiar and forgotten achievements, including the cafeteria at the Metropolitan Museum of Art known as 'the Dorotheum'; the Camellia House restaurant at the Drake Hotel in Chicago; and her fabric collections for F. Schumacher & Co., which were inspired by the unique cultures and landscapes of Spain, Brazil, and the Hawaiian Islands." (dj) Much to see here.
