Speaker 2: I've got these five eggs from Russia. One of them depicts the belfry of Peter the Great in Moscow. Frankly, I think Peter had a few bats up there, but the eggs from the convent of [unintelligible 00:00:14] seem to have a Bavarian different idea. The Ukrainian eggs are [unintelligible 00:00:20] pretty good. The quatrefoil-like motif of Mrs. Alina Giancarlo warms the cockles of my heart, as do the four hens' eggs from Moldavia. The red Monaco eggs used in the Greek Orthodox tradition don't do a whole lot for me, although I do appreciate red doors. After all, Dougie was able to find his way home from Rancho Rosa by looking for Jane [unintelligible 00:00:46] red door.

Be careful with that dye though. Austrians, as well as some Pennsylvania Dutch, believe that if the dye penetrates the shell and stains the egg white, whoever eats it will be poisoned. Given the generally harmless chemicals used in today's egg coloring kits though, I think we could give PAS a pass, don't you?

Speaker 2: The hardest and heaviest materials like wood, iron, and stone become plastic under the workman's hand, assuming the most brilliant polish, the lightest and most elegant forms. Grates are great. Keeping an iron in the fire, a range in the kitchen and a [unintelligible 00:02:07] fridge in avocado green are the ultimate goals of today's househusbands and wives. Those who imagine that art has died out of the world and sigh for the chisel of [unintelligible 00:02:20], the pencil of Apelles and the glorious conceptions of the masters of the Middle Ages would do well to visit Prince Albert's Crystal Palace, not to mention calling ahead to ask if he's still in the can. Art is not dead. It's throwing out wider and deeper roots and will bear richer fruits in the garden of the future, enriched by the mingled detritus of bygone ages.
