Windows Into Winter Solstice
Photographer Louise Millmann took these portraits during our recent visit to the Merchants House Museum. They remind me of the mystery of the longest night of the year.
I feel perfectly at home in the museum, the intact residence of 19th-century merchant Seabury Tredwell. The house is a vortex where time stops.
Louise dressed me up in a vintage hat, coat, cape, and grosgrain ribbon as a tie...fitting attire to step by windows and gaze at the winter light.
