Congratulations on President status. As an American, am very, very proud of how you present yourself, all the while showing total respect to your family, community and country. You always roll up your sleeves and jump in, instead of directing others to do so. You are a great role model and again, congratulations!

There is spray that can be used and it will come right off with just a little wiping. The Daughters of American Revolution in America do this kind of volunteer work for some cemeteries anyway, if they are able. Cannot right now think what the spray is called but can look it up online am sure. It should do a lovely job!

The watercolour of the library is magnificent. She had an eye for design, colour, atmosphere and nuance, with one of the most difficult media in which to paint. Other than what appears to be a coffee table (centre left) being 'off' in its perspective, the draughtsmanship for such a busy room is superb.

@joannadavis6716 Год назад

Oh my goodness! You remind me so much of myself when I was your age. You are so hardworking, have such a zest for life. Your humility is such a wonderful thing. And, if anybody on the plant deserves to be President of a historical society in England it is you! I am 78 and enjoy watching you so much. I live in upstate South Carolina and am an Anglophile! Love love, love anything British and love your channel as well. I admire you so much! And, enjoy every one of your posts. What you are doing with Mapperton is nothing short of amazing and I am grateful that you share it with us. Loved the post on the currant jelly making. I grow only red currants and laughed right out loud as you were scraping the boiled over jelly into the jelly glasses. That is me! But, never fear, there is a solution! I had hoped to make one more trip to the UK, but not sure that will happen due to travel restrictions. But, nonetheless, I get to see you and your channel and that is so satisfying for me. Keep on keeping on! I love your channel and your honesty and love of the history of the family you are a part of now. How very lucky they are to have you 😘!

Oh Julie, I was so proud of you when I saw you rescuing the paintings, as well as the indoc for Pres.

Julie, you’re so cute...”I’ve got my bubble wrap!” One sees and hears your sadness when you talk about Hinchingbrook.

@lindaweigel8572 11 месяцев назад

The watercolor is so lovely. Make sure the glass is UV protective glass as watercolors are very fugitive and colors can fade easily. We have an old watercolor painted by an ancestor of my husband and unfortunately we didn't check the glass for UV and some of the colors have already faded. Such an interesting grouping of paintings and to be able to return home to Mapperton is wonderful!

Congratulations on becoming the president of the historical society, you're going to have access of a wealth of information there as well, but you'll bring in more information as well. Delighted that the portraits are still own by the family and the collection wasn't entirely sold off at auction. Remember (if you haven't already done so) when you receive your master's degree and walk across that stage to wear/have something that belongs to Countess Alberta. Hope you make a video about it as well!!!

Thank God this family has Julie to help out with all if these projects . This place is a ton of work and takes someone who is committed to the end result. Luke could have married a woman who complained and whines all of the time about being pinned down in one place and having to work on keeping the estate profitable in order to pay all of the huge expenses. Keep up the good work ! She is a real go getter.

@@lyndarichardson4744 The school is a public-owned school, a consequence of this is that the UK government does not give the school extra funding for the house, so funding has to come from elsewhere eg visitors, weddings, events, donations, etc. Without this income, the maintenance cannot be paid for. similar to how they pay to maintain Mapperton

As a painter myself not only would I love to see more about the paintings within the collection, but particularly those done be women artist and/women subjects within the paintings. So much history of women, both past and present gets overshadowed by all the moments to men. I hope that you will consider this in your future programming. I glad that you decided to focus your research on Alberta. We desperately need to remember the actual lives and their circumstances of women of our past.
