For some operator failure related reason my Friday post didn't appear. Here it is.

To finish this set from W London's Osterley House - splendidly presented by @nationaltrustlondon here are two ceilings.

Two shots of the main staircase. The first is another vertorama as you can't get far enough back to take it all in a single shot with my ultra-wide. The second is a #lookingup pic.

"Grand neoclassical interior entrance hall with tall white Corinthian columns supporting an ornate ceiling. The space features rich green walls, elaborate white plasterwork moldings, and a decorative frieze with swag patterns. A curved staircase with dark blue railings ascends to the upper level, flanked by ornate hanging lanterns. The floor appears to be stone or marble, and there are portrait paintings visible on the green walls in the background stairwell area. ."

I wanted to get the carpet and ceiling into this shot of the #Tapestry Room. So I did a multishot #vertorama - a weird perspective but a sense of how the room takes your breath away.

This is the entrance hall from where I took yesterday's pic. (Though it's not where visitors enter today - rather a jaw-dropping surprise.) @nationaltrustlondon

The ruins of a Classical Georgian Mansion in a Glasgow Park.

The long gallery at Syon House, Isleworth, London, England. April 2024. The last of five rooms redesigned by Robert Adam at this London residence of the Duke of Northumberland. After some centuries of candle smoke and lamp smoke, the original bright blue/pink colour scheme has dulled somewhat and the vast effort of cleaning it is daunting. Sample attempts with specially colour-matched Farrow & Ball paint in recent decades negatively interacted with the underlying colour, so was abandoned.
