專家說明

Oliver Hoare writes of this: My first encounter with Hollar’s fur muffs took place in the Queen’s Gallery, Buckingham Palace, in the context of an exhibition in 2008 entitled: ‘Amazing Rare Things’. There they were, eight of them, laid out in a case. I found them astounding, surreal even, with a palpable soft erotic charge'.
