Private Splendor: Great Families at Home (Hardcover) by Alexis Gregory.
‘This beautiful volume explores eight European estates that, despite war, taxes, and the passage of time, have remained in the same families for centuries. Offering an inside view of a highly refined way of life, Private Splendor reveals the secrets that kept these homes in private hands. The houses include Seville’s Casa de Pilatos, owned by Spain’s most illustrious grandee; Harewood House in Yorkshire, owned by a cousin of Queen Elizabeth; and Germany’s Schloss Regensburg, occupied by the flamboyant Princess Gloria von Thurn and Taxis’ (TNT). Snazzy!
