    eighteenth-century houses had to be given a new cover of paint (usually just white
    chalk) at least once a year. Kant was apparently not very regular in having this
    done.

  21. Hamann wrote on June 1, 1785, that Kant spent "all his afternoons until 7:00 P.M.
    at Green's house" (Hamann, Briefwechsel, V, p. 448); this is supported by Kraus
    in Reicke, Kantiana, p. 60: "during Green's last years he [Kant] spent several
    hours every afternoon at Green's house, since he could no longer leave the
    house on foot." Jachmann, Kant, p. 162, said: "Kant went there [to Green's] every
    afternoon."
