Elegant lighting
Truth be told, I really don't want to live in luxury BUT sometimes it's fun to imagine for just a short while what it might be like to live in a mansion such as the George Eastman House in Rochester, New York.
Close up of the lights
I do like these lights and they do look smashing in this room with high ceilings, don't you think?
Skylight
Speaking of high ceilings, look at what's in the house between the second and third floor!
A welcoming statue
Here's what's back on the first floor by the front door. Please do come in, my dear.
Leaded glass and carved details

Truly lovely!!
This really is luxury at it's best. I wonder what George would think if he could see what happen to photographic business in to day's world.
Oh I love this glimpse into luxury. The lighting is awesome. B
I agree with you. This mansion is a bit too over-the-top for me. But it's fun to look at. So I appreciate your photos! And it's always fun to see how the 1% live!
Enjoyed the glimpses of the mansion.

i am with you... I love to visit and dream about it and enjoy, but now a place to live in. i love the lamp and the leaded glass. i would like to have beautiful leaded glass windows in my house though and someone to keep them clean for me.
Pretty to look at, but not for me!! I wonder if they ever had pajama day!!!
The circular skylight sure caught my attention.

I just want all the extras that come with living in luxury: beautiful clothes, snazzy cars, a housekeeping service that comes every day, gourmet meals, fabulous trips. Sigh!
Beautiful and elegant for sure. I wouldn't want to have to clean a place of that size would you? :) I love the hole in the ceiling skylight. Amazing architecture.
The lighting is beautiful. It's fun to visit places like that but I wouldn't want to live there.
that circular cut-out is amazing! very cool!
The only things missing are the Christmas lights and decorations! What a beautiful place!
Lovely, EG. This is elegance, but understated elegance. Last night I went to a holiday party at the home of art collectors. Now, THAT was elegance. Ostentatious elegance.
So beautiful to see, and very fun glimpse into luxurious lives! (I'm with you on the luxe life, though, fun to experience in a short dose, but not the life for me:)
Such lovely details!
Very pretty!
I love seeing the opulence of days gone by. A much simpler lifestyle is more my taste.
Your photography is wonderful.
Thanks for stopping in to visit me.
Beautiful house and so well captured!
What an awesome, beautiful place, EG! And your captures are terrific! I do love the elegance although I'm not sure I could live with it on a day to day basis!! Hope you have a great week!

Great place! Luxury is cool every now and then!
Very nice photos from this luxurious place! But not for me, I should not feel comfortable there for long!
Thanks for your comment! I think we have had too much snow already!

love that second story "skylight." is there another architectural term for it? heavenly.
Mr. Eastman did have an eye for the opulent did he not? A beautiful home.
Magnificent photos of a very elegant place ~

I can only wonder at what it must be like to live with such opulance.
