Content and context

Art historian; Director of the Wallace Collection.

Enjoyed yesterday evening. Discusses the guests. Does not suppose Beaton heard Sibyl Cholmondeley and Lillienne attack him separately about his Chinese son. Always enjoys visiting Beaton's house, but "last night was really deserving of the Nobel Prize for hostmanship".
