Ehreshoven Castle - The Inside

The Inside

Because castle Ehreshoven is inhabited and is not accessible the public, should be entered here only on few important rooms briefly. Behind the main main entrance are a Vestibül which takes the whole depth of the house and has a width of three window axes. Indeed, the entrance lies here not in the middle, but was moved to the side. The floor is booked checkered with in colour alternate stone records. The doors have put a tread framings of black marble. The base zone exists of a tile disguising. The stairwell unreasonably small in contrast to the Vestibül has a timeless simple balustrade railing of coloured stucco marble. The dining room stumbling to the north against the anteroom is dressed up with a noteworthy leather wallpaper. She comes from the construction time of the castle and was possibly created in a Flemish workshop. As a motive a big tendril with different blossoms and fruits returns in what alternately a Putto with trumpet in the left and laurel wreath in the right hand, a Putto hitting the Tambourin or a pigeon with an oil branch are to be recognised in the beak. On the narrower base frieze one recognises between flowers bird's heads. The reason of the Carrets is silvered; from this the red coloured fruits, flowers and garments as well as the green sheet work strongly contrast.

Famous quotes containing the words the and/or inside:

    The past is interesting not only for the beauty which the artists for whom it was the present were able to extract from it, but also as past, for its historical value. The same goes for the present. The pleasure which we derive from the representation of the present is due not only to the beauty in which it may be clothed, but also from its essential quality of being present.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    There was a young lady of Ryde
    Who swallowed some apples and died.
    The apples fermented
    Inside the lamented
    And made cider inside her inside.
