Victorians with more money than sense (or taste?)

This is the inside of the pavilion at Wrest Park... basically a fancy summer house in the garden.

Posted as a contrast to yesterday....

Not exactly the understated look! girafferacing · 2012-08-14: 15:21

Yes, but think how it provided work for sculptors, glaziers, builders, etc. That's how Thomas Hardy started, unless I'm very much mistaken... SM2012 · 2012-08-14: 15:47

Amazing work by them and you. busybee · 2012-08-14: 16:09

I'm a fan of Victorian architecture myself (as you'll note by my FOURTEEN photo post today... LOL)! Today people mostly build only to maximize the amount of space they can get for their money... even when pretending to care about the design, they would NEVER spend this kind of money for detail.
