I am a physician and a collector and I have long been enamoured by your father's work and all my collector friends, including Linda Singletary and William Robinson, also on this site, know that one of my dreams is to own a Porter one day. Linda well knows that I have been saving spot for Lydia in my home for years after I first saw it in NY. Thank you carrying the legacy and for continuing to educate us. I consider ownership of works such as that of your father an educational gift to my children and dream of them carrying on the legacy of collecting. I hope to one day speak with you in person.
