Lunchtime #drawing: A window, a chimney with a worn tile depicting half a figure, and a green door at 5 Patchin Place – where writer Djuna Barnes (1892-1982) lived. Her best known novel was ‘Nightwood’, early on she was a journalist and illustrator (including a story in 1914 where she opted to be force-fed in order to write about the experience of hunger striking suffragettes), in the 1920s or so lived in Paris, and then back to Greenwich Village.
