Masterpiece London hosted by Ellie Cullman, May 8, 2013
On May 8th, the New York kick-off reception for Masterpiece London was held at the spectacular apartment of Ellie and Edgar Cullman, Jr. The British organizers couldn’t have picked a more stunning backdrop to talk about their upcoming plans for their June fair, since Ellie, co-founder of Cullman and Kravis, is one of the most sought-after interior designers in the world. Her elegant apartment, a masterful mix of art and antiques from all the top international purveyors of furniture and paintings, has been featured in Architectural Digest, a supporter of Masterpiece London.
