Comment: villa Kenwin was built in 1931 (Architects Alexander Ferenczy, Henry Python and Hermann Henselm) and was restored in 1986 (Architect Giovanni Pezzoli). Bryher, McPherson and H.D. lived in Villa Kenwin together. Out of this geographical place several important relations arose: with the filmic and literary avant-garde (G.W. Pabst, Serghej Ejzenštejn, Sylvia Beach, Gertrude Stein, Djuna Barnes, Dorothy Richardson, Marianne Moore, etc.), with the victims of Fascist persecutions (Benjamin and others) and with the exponents of the dawning psychoanalysis (Sigmund and Anna Freud, Havelock Ellis, Hanns Sachs and Annie Reich).
