The Selby has inspired me to appreciate decoration in living spaces a tad bit more.
In browsing through the photography collection of Todd Selby, connoisseur in documenting the diverse places people call home, I came across a special opportunity he had to photograph French fashion designer Jeanne Lanvin's private library. Her early photographs, sketches, and collection of Victorian mode literature are unrivaled in their attention to detail - winsome, aristocratic, intelligent, confident, and theatrical...like her.
