CORINTHIAN ROOM
One of the first rooms to be redone, the Corinthian Room picks up the basic Close-up colors found in the mosaic tile (as was true rich color, in all the rooms) on the center floor area.
The hand-wrought plaster detail is set off in gilt and strong colors. Corinthian columns create vertical strength in the room. Much of the decorative art has a porcelainized appearance. A two-dimensional effect is created by a two-toned blue inner border on the ceiling.
