TODAY'S QUIZ

There are so very many things I don't know.  I just found out another of those things this week (I should have been able to put it together years ago, as I was in possession of all the pieces of the puzzle, but sometimes the obvious eludes my Dilettantish brain).

What common thread do Hubbard Hall at Bowdoin College, in Brunswick, Maine, and the Metropolitan Museum in New York share (aside from symmetrical facades?)



The answer is to be found in an upcoming post, if none of you sharp witted folk come up with it before then. There is no prize for correct answers to this quiz, aside from the satisfaction of being smarter than I am.

TODAY'S QUIZ

How are this unknown lost mid-century building:


and Robert Motherwell,

and Blueberry Pie,


and Quincy Marketplace,


and my local library, all connected?



The answers may all be found by reading my latest pieces for New York Social Diary HERE, and Portland Magazine HERE

Or maybe a few of you know the answers?

Sidekick, you are automatically disqualified.

TODAY'S QUIZ


No time to put it all together today, so let's see if any of you know the common thread between:

 
This portrait,

This amazing house,

and this portrait?

The only clues I'll give today are that neither of the women in the portraits ever lived in the house, nor were they related to each other.
