My dear Graham Vacani1 has just been with the design for the amorphous frame - it is a singularly hideous shape - and I told him I thought the best thing to do with it would be to frame it square - filling up the spaces with dark painted wood flush with the picture and painted in different grays some spandrilly pattern like this [see image] nothing would ever make it look well but it would crash the spirits less - what is the picture [di37]? - a cassone one? was it the end of a box? and has the bottom been cut away - it is perhaps if I saw the picture I could give better advice. I can't find the photo I spoke help. Your affc. EBJ 1 See B28, n. 5.
