☆ The Painter of Revolution, on Both Sides of the Atlantic
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-11 | by ( Jason Farago | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

On July 14, 1789 (exactly 235 years ago this Sunday), some idealistic Parisians stormed a not especially crowded prison. They set in train a three-pronged revolution: for individual liberty, for civil equality, and, last and rarest, for communal obligation. In the National Assembly of 1789 and the National Assembly of 2024, some questions never get a final answer. Guillaume Lethière (1760—1832) was a Neoclassical painter of mixed race who has never, until now, been the subject of a solo museum show. Born in the French Caribbean, almost certainly into slavery, he reached the summits of artistic achievement in Paris and Rome.

☆ Following a River Through the Heart of the Berkshires

For much of my childhood in the Berkshires region of western Massachusetts, I didn’t give a hoot about the Housatonic River. Notions of Edenic riverbanks came from my mom reading “The Wind in the Willows” out loud after dinner — not from encounters with the actual river that flowed 330 yards from our front door. An arched bridge over it, which I crossed on my walk to high school, marked the transition from home to the stresses of my teenage years. I learned, too, that reaches of the river acclaimed by Melville, Ives and Longfellow were laden with PCBs, an industrial pollutant. Tourists, taking their cue from locals, have only rarely ventured down to the Housatonic’s banks.

Warren Buffett walks the floor ahead of the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholders Meeting in Omaha, Nebraska on May 3, 2024. Berkshire Hathaway reported Saturday a huge year-over-year increase in operating earnings in the first quarter, while its cash holdings bubbled to record levels. The Warren Buffett-led conglomerate posted an operating profit — which encompasses earnings from the company's wholly owned businesses — that surged 39% to $11.22 billion from the year-earlier period. That gain was led by a 185% year-on-year increase in insurance underwriting earnings to $2.598 billion from just $911 million. Berkshire's railroad business raked in $1.14 billion in profit, down slightly from the first quarter of 2023.

Former FTX executive Ryan Salame is expected to plead guilty to criminal charges. Salame would be the fourth top official in the exchange to plead guilty to charges brought by the US Attorney's office in Manhattan. Sam Bankman-Fried, the company's former CEO and founder, is scheduled to go to trial on fraud and conspiracy charges in October. It's not immediately clear which charges Salame may plead guilty to and whether he will testify at Bankman-Fried's trial, as the other former executives are expected to. Within FTX, Salame connected Bankman-Fried to political power brokers and helped try to legitimize cryptocurrency in the corridors of Washington, DC.

We need to pay more attention to nonprofit theaters and theaters outside New York — because there are real challenges in those places we need to be telling our readers about. Theaters that once saw themselves either as competitors or just strangers are much more interested in finding ways to help one another. There’s a coalition forming of theaters in Connecticut that is talking about whether the theaters might be able to share set-building functions. A lot of theaters are talking about the possibility of either more government assistance or for more foundations to take seriously the challenges facing this field. How will we see an effect on Broadway, which depends on nonprofit theaters to develop material and support artists?

He never "let the truth get in the way of a good story," a former close friend said. Hermès bags, like the Birkin and the Kelly, have always been symbols of unattainable luxury.

The Berkshires, in western Massachusetts, have long encouraged contemplative walking. Now, a new long-distance path, the High Road, will provide a slow-paced, inn-to-inn experience that will eventually traverse the entire region. Behind the effort is the Berkshire Natural Resources Council, which is using existing preserves as footholds for the route. Along with providing easy access to pristine wilderness, the High Road will showcase the region’s cultural highlights, allowing walkers to incorporate afternoons at destinations like Tanglewood and Jacob’s Pillow. The Berkshire Natural Resources Council has a trail map of the High Road’s first section on its website.

The Soniat House hotel in New Orleans, one of the properties Ken Fulk and Clark Lyda have taken over with their company InHouse. In 1903 turpentine magnate Robert Paterson and his wife, Marie Louise Paterson, moved into a new mansion in the Berkshires filled with art and antiques, on 130 wooded acres on the edge of Lenox, Massachusetts. They named their stately pile Blantyre, after a village in Scotland, Robert’s native country. Following Robert’s 1917 death, the palatial spread changed hands many times, passing in and out of bankruptcy as it became a country club, before emerging in the 1980s as a genteel resort famous for its encyclopedic wine cellar and ambitious white-tablecloth cooking. Though renovations over the years sapped some of the time-capsule splendor of the Paterson home, the historic bones of the building were still largely intact when designer Ken Fulk and property developer Clark Lyda purchased the hotel last year.

True fans know that her catchphrase, "I made it nice!," was coined during an argument in the kitchen of the 120-year-old home. "Over the years, the one thing we found was that not only was I a character, but Bluestone Manor became its own character and people just gravitated toward that place," Medley told CNN Business. That's when she recognized a branding opportunity to give fans a piece of the Berkshires house. "What would I see at my bar at Bluestone Manor?"
