Paris, en messe verdt

ENG: Because of the sudden businesscall Karl Edo had to go to Paris instead of attending the Stavanger trade show. But he managed to do some private shopping as well. I must admit I was a bit surprised about what he brought home from some of Paris' many antiques shops: an art nouveau mirror and an art deco clock isn't what I usually associate with the Spook House style. But it seems he knew what he was doing, because they do look rather nice together with the candleholders he also bought there and the Nora Guldbrandsen vase.

NOR: På grunn av presserende forretninger måtte Karl Edo måtte dra til Paris istedenfor å dra på handelsmessen i Stavanger, men han rakk da å få handlet litt til seg selv i Paris også.
Jeg var litt overrasket over hva han hadde med seg hjem fra de mange antikvitetsbutikkene i Paris; et art nouveau speil og en art deco klokke er ikke akkurat det jeg forbinder med Spook House-stilen. Men det virker som om han vet hva han gjør, for de ser jo ganske bra ut sammen med lysestakene han også kjøpte der og Nora Guldbrandsen-vasen.

ENG: Karl Edo wasn't at home when these pictures were taken. It's election day, so he was out voting. (When he came home he told me he voted for The Democratic Tupperware Party)

NOR: Karl Edo var ikke hjemme da disse bildene ble tatt, som den gode borger han er var han ute og avga sin stemme i Stortingsvalget. (Han fortalte meg da han kom hjem at han hadde stemt på Det Liberale Hofteparti)
