Remains of the Day...

It's design mashup day here at The New Victorian Ruralist.

I've collected a few stray photographs that have caught

my eye for one reason or another in the past, but just

couldn't seem to make their way into a cohesive posting.

Some of the sources are unknown, some are leftovers

from past postings, and some just involve one small element

that intrigued me. For instance, I like how the fixtures

in this photograph add dimension to the Henry Lepind

painting that dates back to 1883.

I thought the mummified chairs

were interesting. Of course, that floor pulled me

in as well. Source unknown.

Loved the color and finish on the armoire.
Source unknown.

A leftover from my Miles Redd posting.

A nice image from Marie Claire Maison...

and another Marie Claire Maison image I just couldn't

work into a suitable posting.

This image, and the two that follow, are

from Italian Marie Claire. There are so many

great textures in these photographs.

Photograph by John Paul Urizar, a Sydney still-life,

food, and lifestyle photographer.

Cool wallpaper clock (yes, it is a functioning clock).

Currently available at Finderskeepers, if

you are interested.

Children's rooms rarely excite me, but this space is

certainly an exception. Source Unknown.

These images were so small, but I loved what looks

to be Mongolian lamb resting on the seats of

those Ghost Chairs. Image from Atlantis Home.
