    One of the most popular posts of The Devoted Classicistblog has been Historic Paint Color At Monticellowhich presents the re-creation of the 1815 chrome-yellow paint scheme for the Dining Room.  One of the pleasures of authoring a blog is making new acquaintances, and hearing from old ones.  So it was a great treat to get an email from the distinguished New York City designer Ralph Harvard, of Ralph Harvard Inc.,an Attingham graduate that I had met just prior to my own wonderful educational experience at the school.  Ralph read my essay on the paint color and thought the Devoted Readers would appreciate seeing the carpet he designed for the Dining Room.  I am sure that will be the case.
