prefer an air - con room, consider slightly out - of - the - way

Modern stone carvers have included Jean - Baptiste Carpeaux (1827 - 1875), famous for his wonderfully animated Dance (1865 - 9, Musee d'Orsay); Constantin Brancusi (1876 - 1957), who produced The Kiss (1907, Kunsthalle, Hamburg); Jacob Epstein (1880 — 1959) responsible for the evocative Adam (1938, Harewood
House); the Gothic - inspired German expressionist sculptor Wilhelm Lehmbruck (1881 - 1919), creator of Kneeling Woman (1911, MOMA); Henri Gaudier - Brzeska (1891 - 1915), noted for the
Red Stone Dancer (1913, Tate Gallery); Henry Moore (1898 - 1986), noted for Mother and Child (1924 - 5, Manchester Art Gallery); the painters Andre Derain (1880 - 1954), famous for his Standing Nude (1907, Pompidou Centre) and Modigliani (1884 - 1920), who always
preferred to carve directly in stone; and others.
I would tend to agree with that, considering I currently have
red and green plaid couches (newly weds here so we lucked out with lots of hand - me - downs) and although they're the country / vintage look I like, I'd
prefer a more plain look since we have a tiny
house and the plaid seems overwhelming.
