“Entire rooms were designed and built in shops of European craftsmen, including Allard and Sons of Paris, and then shipped to Newport for reassembly. Built for Cornelius Vanderbilt II (worth more than $70 million) and his family, The Breakers was modeled after the Renaissance palaces of Turin and Genoa. Its 65,000 square foot gait was fashioned to entertain.” - via Unabashedly Prep

whatwill-your-versebe: I’ll always love a good library, especially this one located in The Breakers (The Vanderbilt’s beach home in Newport) and styled in the Gilded Age fashion— the fireplace is magnificent.
