Landing Mosaic

ORNAMENTS ABOVE YOU
A Marland Mansion Ceilings Tour, Cont.

There are two mirroring staircases leading up to the Gallery level.Each boasts a domed ceiling done in gold leaf mosaic. Both were put together, piece by piece, in place, by Florentine mural artist, Vincent Margliotti. He then added the Renaissance paintings.

The owls add a whimsical touch, perched atop sculpted columns.

The ceiling located above the landing directly at the top of the staircases forms the middle portion of the elegant gold leaf mosaic.

Margliotti's eye for color and attention to detail make these ceilings masterpieces that will continue to withstand the test of time.
