I could do with a little break in the Val di Noto. Waking up to the smell of Jasmine that grows in the courtyard and an almond granita for breakfast. Just like last time. Memories of last year at the stunning Palazzo del Castelluccio. #london #noto #sicily #sicilia #mood #mooddujour #thursday #tbt #memories #throwback #18thcentury #gilded #interiors #sicilianbaroque #palazzocastelluccio #palazzo #ootd #wiwt #menswear #sartorial #bespoketailoring #aesthetic (at Noto, Sicily) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMRrRzznBl9/?igshid=cmqb4xz2hlfu

Whenever you enter a room, always listen to the stories it wants to tell you.

On hot days like those, there is nothing I like more than to hide away in darkened rooms, steeped in history. Letting the stories I feel engulf me. The air heavy with Jasmine. ✨✨✨ #london #palermo #kalsa #sicily #sicilia #italia #travel #travelgram #summer #palazzo #gilded #interiors #theworldofinteriors #sicilianbaroque #details #18thcentury #architecture #mooddujour #mood #aristocrats #littlestoriesofmylife #words #poetry #instapoet #jasmine #memories #aesthetic https://www.instagram.com/p/CEMFxWVnnt7/?igshid=j1ff66fymtp8

From which Star did We fall that We could meet each other here? ✨✨✨ John Soane is one of My favourite museums! Best place to go to forget about the world and escape for a moment or for a romantic rendez-vous! #london #monday #mood #mooddujour #words #foodforthought #littlestoriesofmylife #poetsofinstagram #instapoet #quotes #nietzsche #loveisallyouneed #johnsoane #photosoane #classical #architecture #neoclassical #classicalarchitecture #apollo #greek #gods #dish #gay #history #lincolnsinn #interiors #theworldofinteriors #minimalism #19thcentury #aesthetic https://www.instagram.com/p/CIxl4AOnZuA/?igshid=nbq3exzwjhma

I saw this striking portrait of Princess Tatiana Yussupova at the Hermitage. Supposedly a copy of the original Winterhalter portrait. It features the infamously beautiful Princess with her impressive Yussupov Loverknot Diadem, a pearl épaulette and the family estate in Arkhangelskoe in the background. People were dazzled when the Princess appeared at a ball at the Winter Palace wearing her pearl parure. As we can see with a good reason to. The Loversknot design was very popular amongst Royalty and the Nobility of Europe and no less than five versions existed of which one is in possession of HM. The Yussupov's is designed with 19 perfect arches and knots and has pearls suspended from each arch and along the top. The pearl collection ( and the entire jewellery collection) of the Yussupovs was legendary which also included La Pelegrina Pearl. The Loversknot diadem didn't have a happy ending unfortunately. I was was found in the Yussupov Palace along with a big part of their collection and was most probably dismantled. See last picture, with one of its pearls already missing. #london #stpetersburg #hermitage #amsterdam #mooddujour #tiaratuesday #tiara #diadem #diamonds #pearls #loversknottiara #yussupov #imperialrussia #19thcentury #romanov #art #history #jewelrycollectors #winterhalter #aesthetic https://www.instagram.com/p/CH-LsEJn1eb/?igshid=72d40uerg1nf
