@maggiemae She was quite the huntswoman- there were stuffed things in a number of rooms. The goose in the study looked like it had been walking on ice and slipped. It would give environmentally minded folks nightmares.
@ankers70@ludwigsdiana@kjarn Yes- not 21st century decor- but quite common in the heyday of this house. I prefer art over the fireplace myself.
Thank you all for the views, comments and favs! I did like the vintage feel of this fireplace and even the rustic addition of the goose over the mantle- but only as it was pertinent to the time frame of the house from a historical perspective. It has some artistic merit in that way but rest assured- I wouldn't recommend decorating your home like this now. (o:
