Antony Penrose recalls his parent's, Lee Miller and Roland Penrose, artist friends such as Man Ray, Picasso and Francois Gilot, as they visited this unusual home.

Painter Roland Penrose and photographer Lee Miller's move to Farleys in Sussex, UK, was not to settle down but to create, entertain, and inspire. In this publication, their son Antony Penrose, recalls the 1950's with a fascinating insight into his parents' lives, as they transformed Farleys from a traditional farmhouse into a hub of art. Farleys with unexpected decoration and surreal living had a wealth of 20th century artists visiting the home. The book is designed to reflect the colors and designs from the color on the walls to the textiles of the furnishings.
