#1 Post by erock308 »

Anyone recognize or know what the Octagon Art next to the stairs?
Or have a really good screen capture of it?

I took the liberty to mock up what I think it looks like ;-)

I always assumed it was a mirror too, but that's a strange height at which to hang a mirror.

I don't think it's a mirror. It took 6 separate screen grabs but I think I got it all.

I think it was probably Mabel Dodge's fault.

Hi erock308,
Off topic, it's interesting to see in ENSHealy's fifth pic that the light fixture at the top of the stairs is different than in your pic at the beginning of this thread. The hat rack is even missing in this shot. Just thought you would be interested in this for your den project.....now you have the choice to two light fixtures. :wink:
How is the project coming?
Any pics?

Looks like mosaic tile art to me.
