Simon Vouet - Simon Vouet (1590 - 1649) was the French painter and draftsman who introduced the Italian Baroque style to France. A French contemporary, lacking the term "Baroque," said, "In his time the art of painting began to be practiced here in a nobler and more beautiful way than ever before," and the allegory of "Riches" (illustration, right) demonstrates a new heroic sense of volumes, a breadth and confidence without decorative mannerisms.

Martha Stewart's New Old House: Restoration, Renovation, Decoration, Landscaping by Martha Stewart, ISBN 0517577011 : Martha Stewart has always loved old houses, and much of her life has been devoted to making them livable again. From her first renovation - the reclaiming of a 19th-century schoolhouse - to the complex restoration of her Federal-style farmhouse on Turkey Hill, Martha has endeavored to "remove the unsightly and replace it with the beautiful." She often wished she had kept a complete record of her restoration efforts, so when the old Adams homestead in Connecticut became available, she decided not only to buy it and restore it, but also to record the experience. Martha Stewart's New Old House is the renovation journal Martha always wanted to keep. From the initial inspection of the historic but sadly "down-at-the-heels" Adams house to its completion as Martha's dream home, Martha Stewart's New Old House is the step-by-step story of exactly how she makes an old house "new." This uniquely personal account guides homeowners (and would-be homeowners) through one of the most exciting and challenging projects they will ever undertake the restoration, renovation, and decoration of an old house.
