Once a stately mansion, graced with the owner’s lifetime collections of French masterpieces, 18th and 19th century silver, furniture and decorative arts. The home of an American connoisseur of art and antiques, world traveler, socialite and philanthropist.
The beauty of this mansion, now has fallen victim to American greed… the wrecking ball has stripped it of its grandeur. Walls exposed. Bare and barren. But, the memories and secrets still remain in the rubble.
Once was…left empty for many years
What is……..

Jane, I particularly like the second image (the three are great) but you have captured so many surface textures in a single shot. Such a good eye for your hobby.

Tx, Ron. The first pic I googled for contrast. The other two are mine. So sad to see this structure go down. A lot of history there
