Maymont Mansion Second Floor

As we ascend the stairs from the center hall we are greeted by the magnificent Louis Comfort Tiffany window.  The day we visited was a lovely day and the sun was shining beautifully through this lovely window.  Alas, it is not easy to photograph into the sun even though it is shaded by this window.

A peacock greeted us on the way up the stairs.

The center hall was set up for bridge as Mrs. Dooley loved the game.  She would entertain her friends here in the afternoons.

This is the view from the bridge table. As you can see there is a third floor that was not on the tour.

Beside the stairwell, to the left, is a door for the servants to come up from the basement.  There is an elevator in this home all the way to the basement as well as additional stairs for servants to use.

Next to the center hall of the second floor is Mr Dooley's dressing room.

Then we come to his office.

Mr Dooley's bedroom.

Next door to Mr. Dooley's bedroom is Mrs. Dooley's dressing room.

This 18" waist dress was on loan from the Valentine Museum

This scrapbook reminded me so much of the paper dolls I used to make with my Nanny 

Then we come into Mrs. Dooley's Bedroom.  She obviously loved swans!

Beautiful view upon leaving the front door 

I hope you will join me next to view the servant's quarters and kitchen of the Dooley Mansion.
