It used to be brown and a
little beaten up, so I painted the
frame coral and then covered the cork with chevron -
patterned fabric.
Here are people, landscapes, and odd
little moments in and around Eggleston's hometown of Memphis — an anonymous woman in a loudly
patterned dress and cat's eye glasses sitting, left leg slightly raised, on an equally loud outdoor sofa; a coal - fired barbecue shooting up flames,
framed by a shiny silver tricycle, the curves of a gleaming black car fender, and someone's torso; a tiny, gray - haired lady in a faded, flowered housecoat, standing expectant, and dwarfed in the huge dark doorway of a mint - green room whose only visible furniture is a shaded lamp on an end table.
From the X-back chairs, to the curvy -
framed mirror, to the
patterns on the bench cushions - that
little nook would definitely be a fun place to pull up a bowl of cereal!
