Aves, tanto reales como decorativas, en Westbury House.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Por Emily Werner Kitzen<\/strong>, Curador<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quiz\u00e1s hayas notado p\u00e1jaros decorando superficies por toda Westbury House, pero \u00bfsab\u00edas que a los Phipps tambi\u00e9n les gustaban los p\u00e1jaros de verdad? Hace poco revis\u00e9 algunas fotos y videos familiares en los archivos de Old Westbury Gardens y encontr\u00e9 varias im\u00e1genes de la familia disfrutando de la compa\u00f1\u00eda de sus amigos emplumados.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Estas dos fotos de Susie (hija de Michael), la nieta de Jay y Dita, fueron tomadas a mediados de la d\u00e9cada de 1940. Por la alfombra y el revestimiento de la pared que se ven al fondo, podemos deducir que est\u00e1 jugando en el estudio. Junto a ella hay dos jaulas grandes que albergaban algunas de las aves de la familia Phipps. En la jaula del fondo se puede ver un loro amarillo (posiblemente una cotorra dorada).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aunque ahora resulta dif\u00edcil imaginar loros viviendo en el Estudio, fotograf\u00edas como estas son recursos fascinantes para el Departamento de Conservaci\u00f3n, ya que ofrecen una visi\u00f3n de c\u00f3mo la familia utilizaba los objetos y viv\u00eda en las habitaciones que nos esforzamos por preservar para los visitantes de hoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Junto a los p\u00e1jaros de verdad, Susie juega con una peque\u00f1a jaula de juguete que parece ser un aut\u00f3mata primitivo, o figura mec\u00e1nica. Al dar cuerda a un mecanismo en la base de la jaula, el pajarito "cantaba" y mov\u00eda la cabeza y la cola.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Un aut\u00f3mata similar se exhibe ahora sobre un pedestal en el tocador del segundo piso de Westbury House. Probablemente fue fabricado en Francia a finales del siglo XIX y est\u00e1 cubierto de aut\u00e9nticas plumas de ave iridiscentes que habr\u00edan brillado al moverse. En un lateral de la base se lee la inscripci\u00f3n \u201csouvenir d'amitie\u201d (recuerdo de amistad), lo que indica que probablemente fue recibido como regalo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Otros documentos de archivo que capturan el amor de la familia Phipps por las aves incluyen estas im\u00e1genes fijas de una pel\u00edcula casera de la d\u00e9cada de 1920 que muestra primeros planos de dos de los loros de los Phipps sobre una mesa en la Terraza Sur, as\u00ed como un loro posado en la mano de Michael. La pel\u00edcula completa se puede ver en nuestra p\u00e1gina de Colecciones Digitales en Patrimonio de Nueva York<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tambi\u00e9n descubrimos esto Foto de la d\u00e9cada de 1930<\/a> (abajo) de una colecci\u00f3n de jaulas para p\u00e1jaros dispuestas de forma informal en la Terraza Sur. Si te fijas bien, \u00a1podr\u00e1s ver un loro grande en el banco en primer plano!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me encanta pasear por Westbury House y descubrir nuevos detalles decorativos que nunca antes hab\u00eda notado. Una vez que empec\u00e9 a pensar en la afici\u00f3n de los Phipps por los p\u00e1jaros, comenc\u00e9 a verlos por todas partes: pintados en el papel pintado y sobre la chimenea, incrustados en la puerta de un armario, incluso posados sobre un espejo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a1No olvides estar atento a las aves la pr\u00f3xima vez que visites Westbury House!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
