3. I live in a castle in Florence, Italy, at Oltrarno
neighbourhood, next to the Arno river.
4. My castle is very big, it has
three floors without the
towers, which are between
two and three floors higher.
5. There are 10
bedrooms with
ensuite
bathrooms, an
enormous
dining room, a
private art
studio and a
library.
6. Outside, I have
a garden and a
stable where my
horses, other
animals and my
carriage are.
7. Today it’s friday 13th of december
and the weather is cold and
windy. Well, as I usually do, I
wake up at 6 o’clock and I get up
immediately to see the sun rise
from my balcony while I listen to
classical or 20’s-30’s jazz music
with my gramophone.
8. At 7 o’clock, I have a cup of green tea for
breakfast, and then I put on my overcoat
and go outside to water my garden.
9. At 8 o’clock, I go to
my private art studio
and I start working.
10. At 11 o'clock I finish a new illustration so I take
my horse carriage and cross the city until I
arrive at my art gallery (11:30), where I add that
illustration to my exhibition.
11. When I leave my art gallery (12
o'clock) I spend up to 2 o'clock walking
around Florence looking for
inspiration, and when that time comes,
I return to my castle and have lunch at
a picnic outside, alone.
As I'm a vegetarian, I eat a delicious
salad and some fruit.
12. After lunch I read
until 5 o'clock,
and then I go to
the film library to
see a classic old
movie.
13. At 7:30 I call my
marketing assistant to
discuss how the next
exhibition in South
Africa will be like.
14. At 9 o'clock I go to my dining room and I greet my guests .
Today there is a vegetarian banquet because I have organized
a dance party in my castle, which art critics and potential
buyers of my works will attend. In the background an
orchestra plays baroque pieces.
15. The party ends at 2 o’clock in the morning, and when
everyone has left my home, I go to my bedroom and I
write some poetry until I fall asleep.
16. The admirable illustrator Lord Eric, who lives like a dandy from the
past, tells us one of his wonderful days and shows us what the world
is like through his eyes. With this book we will know the lifestyle of
Lord Eric and the hobbies that influence his artistic style.
