So Interesting! The house plan is similar to the Decatur House on Lafayette Square which has always incorporated the service ell.

Shaker's in your system. Elsewhere hopefully, I have a large collection "between covers" and you add much with your insight. Kentucky was socially very unique (compared to Ohio and the Northeast) and the social differeces were amazing but never in a negative way (I guess I was particularly startled by a tad of slavery and the Civil War). Look forward to more of your teaching. G*dbless, EBMAL inspire.

Interesting, I am reading a book set during the American revolution War and a whole chapter was on this day.

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾!!

Very nice!

Anyone can feel free to contact me. I have more information on the Dunn family Dynasty of Pottery.

I am a descendant from John Allen Dunn and Catherine lafever. I've done alot of genealogy research. This is very interesting to me. This is part of my ancestors history. Wow

Well done.

It's a beautiful home and needs restoring.

So happy you chose to do an exhibit on Dorothy Liebes!❤

❤such a beautiful house

Thanks MC, I have viewed this clip many times and have always found a nugget of knowledge missed ea time. I find this video as much a resource as any I maintain in print.. All The Best, Guy

I agree with suzette. I still have one of the finest glass collections by the last of the former wizards of stained glass production such as Oceana and Uroboros. I do not know if anyone has filled their shoes. I think that would be hard to do as with Jim Lundberg. You never throw away top line scrap glass as that is the mothers milk for projects to come by having large amounts of color and shade to use as you want. I have owned several Neustadt's books for many years. They are expensive but worth every penny as are the books on his houses. The room with the bathers is stupefying. I have many of the colors you showed. I thank you for being able to see the collection I have heard about. I have always wanted to see this saved from destruction collection. It is amazing and the foresight of one guy that this still exists all together today. Thanks.

Yes; thank you for the talk!

Hello Arts Trust and Peter I am doing a research group project for Temple, we are watching your video for a virtual tour! We love your video and we had some questions. Do we know why they chose this location for the first world fair ? Also you stated that it is the location of the first ever Japanese style garden in North America, but only a stone lantern remains. Is there a reason it was not preserved ? Did the garden always belong to West Fairmount Park ?

Thank you for this discussion; I’m glad to have discovered this channel!

Thank you for the historical Journey at Brooks bank and Saunders Wharf.

Thank you.

Great job on explaining how Edward C. Moore was able to use his astute collecting skills to inspire his most famous and elaborate Tiffany silver designs. I totally get how he amassed these pieces for his design inspiration. I do the same thing myself for my product photography. I'm always looking through antique shops, home stores and other places for unique and inspiring photo backgrounds to do my product photography. I read a book about Normal Rockwell and he did the same exact thing and even had a huge warehouse of props that he collected for specific use in doing his famous portraits. My big question is did the Edward C. Moore collection come first or did his collection slowly amass as a result of his wanting to find objects to inspire him on his silver designs? I would also be curious to know if Tiffany and Company gave Edward a personal expense budget to purchase these items?

Nice presentation, just some audio hiccups.

Great information. Thank you

When I was young, my family anchored at Crane’s Beach and we’d enjoy the beach during the summers. My friends and I used to run up to “The Castle” and play on the grounds. This house is close to my heart. ❤ An interesting story about the house; Mr. Crane built the first summer house and his wife didn’t like it. He asked her to live with it for, I believe, ten years. After that, he tore down the first house and built this one. After the parents had passed away, none of the Crane children wanted the house, so the trusties took it over. I lived in Ipswich when I was young and remember the beach days. There was an old ship, the Ada K Damon, that ran aground during a horrible blizzard in 1909. The ship would get buried in the sand then reemerge years later, the then disappear under the sand again for a few years until it would re-emerge again. That went on for over a century. After being on the beach for 111 years, the last remaining pieces of the Ada K Damon were torn apart by a coastal storm and it no longer exists.

Thank you for a very informative tour.

Again, Max Cox you are a wonder. Your thoroughness of research would put many a college professor to shame!

WOW! Who knew about Kentucky sugar chests? Thanks , , ,

Very well presented and interesting. Thank you

What a smorgasbord of decorative arts ! It only figures with my luck the one peice that i fell in love with was totally overlooked ! The dark Rococo side table to the right, under the mirror @31:33 looks like it has a story to tell. With beautiful lines and proportions, i'd like to know more about this majestic wall flower. Thank you Gregory for sharing AND all you do for our history ❣

Fascinating...thank you !

It is wonderful to see it this way,we forget how people really lived in these old spaces! Don’t make her tooo pretty,there’s beauty in her age and decline.

I walked out to that house twice in 2013. But I never knew about the initialed bricks. That's so cool. I'm trying to figure out Ralph Harvard's accent. I don't think I've ever heard anyone say "house" the way he does. The only patterned brick house I've been inside of is the Somers Mansion in Somers Point, which is from sometime in the 1720s. They don't know exactly. It was great to see the inside of this one. Thanks for uploading this video, and thanks for the work you do.

Ahhhhhhhh

Despite the grand scale, and being a museum, it still manages to have a domestic quality. Beautiful.

Beautiful home and representation of colonial American artistry.

Have never heard in any museum house in Rhode island that mahogany came from Africa. All interpretations state that the wood came from the west indies or central Americas.🧐

Thank you for sharing this beautifully preserved colonial for us...well done!

Fascinating! I loved seeing pictures of beautifully ornamented scissors.

I have been a stained glass artist for forty years and have always been in awe of Tiffany's works. I have read much about his life and work, but the tour of this archive was astonishing! It brought me goose bumps! Thank you so much for sharing!

Just seeing this video 2 years after it was posted. Has anything been done with the house? Is Ralph still in charge of its preservation?? I'm fascinated!!!

Amazing !!!!

Saw the house and new immediately it was in southern New Jersey. There are many old houses like this built. Was so sad they destroyed a brick home in the middle of the night to make way for a 295 interchange.. that house had the same distinctive brick work.

An excellent talk.
