Description:
"Gerald Murphy and Sara Wiborg were wealthy, expatriate Americans who moved to a villa in the French Riviera in the 1920s. Gerald had a brief but significant career as a painter, but they were best known for their hospitality and flair for parties. They created a vibrant social circle that included a great number of artists and writers of the Lost Generation, such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway. They were seen as people whose love and courage got them through great suffering as their two teenaged sons died not long after they left America, one of tuberculosis and the other from spinal meningitis." --
