This
was for a historic preservation class. It was a graduate level class (they
let me take it because it was the only thing available that semester for my
specialization) where we did a Historic American Buildings Survey survey. This was
a real survey--if you go to HABS, you can look it up.
This is the living room fireplace from the George P. Kuykendall House in Lubbock, Texas. I love this fireplace. That's not a painting--that's a mosaic tile. And the sconces to the sides are cast iron.
Why yes, I did measure every square inch of it.
