peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1| son accrochage personnel what she had on her own walls Explanation: I think you can be fairly straightforward here. The idea, as I understand it, is that the person jokingly says she prefers what she has on her own walls in her home in Brussels to the works of the exhibition in question. |

her private (art) collection/or artwork hanging on her own walls Explanation: Or her own personal collection She is not saying (as Nikki suggests) that she prefers her own collection but is laughingly comparing it to the Barnes (private) collection and other collections mentioned which "étaient parmi ses préférés" Yes "accrochage" =hanging but you would not say "her own hanging" in English as that would indicate suicide! You would have to include art or artworks or collection http://www.chicagotribune.com/lifestyles/sns-diy-home-decor-... http://store.staspicturehanging.com/Picture_Hanging_for_Muse... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 days (2016-10-03 20:40:45 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Glad to have helped |
