    Wonderful, I am an Achitect who retired and live in a beautiful Victorian Mansion on the first floor comprising some 1800 SF. I have filled it with art from the Guilded Age period and how the house would have been decorated in 1890 by the folks who first lived there. The original owners were a wealthy Jewish family who were originally born in the 1840's! They are buried in the oldest Jewish cemetery in Louisville. I love knowing the history of my house!! I loved your personal tour and beautifully appointed house!!

    I enjoyed learning about the provenance of the art, furniture etc.
    I appreciate how masterfully everything works together, that’s talent!
    What a tremendous blessing to have inherited so much beautiful furniture, artwork, rugs etc from his mother!
