Moorish influence
Feb. 2nd, 2013 11:19 pmThese pictures are from the Wisconsin Club, in Milwaukee. It's a ritzy place (obviously). It was originally the mansion of Alexander Mitchell.
These rooms have an obvious Moorish influence, wouldn't you say, Donna? The framework of the doors is directly taken from the Moorish, though the stained glass (very likely Tiffany) is not.
The walls do not have the geometric patterns, but are in keeping with the theme of intricate designs. The ceiling I found very interesting. It seems to be a take on muqarnas.
