HOW NICE IT WOULD BE TO TRAVEL THE WORLD AND PAINT LANDSCAPES WHILE MAKING THE MANY STOPS ALONG THE WAY. FOR THAT, YOU WOULD NEED TALENT BUT ALSO A SENSE OF FUN AND ADVENTURE. THE ARTISTS WHOSE PAINTINGS HANG IN THIS ROOM ARE WITNESSES TO THE WEALTH AND INSPIRATION OF DIVERSE CULTURES. THE DEPICTIONS OF HISTORIC JAPAN ARE ESPECIALLY ATTRACTIVE WHILE VIEWED ALONGSIDE PAINTINGS, BY THE SAME ARTISTS, OF OTHER LANDS IN WHICH THEY SPEND SOME TIME BEFORE MOVING ON TO THEIR NEXT DESTINATION. WHEN WE TRAVEL FROM PLACE TO PLACE, WE ALSO CAN APPRECIATE FRIENDSHIPS, CULTURE AND BEAUTY IN THEIR MANY FORMS.

THE SIZE AND SCALE OF THIS SUNNY, BEDROOM IS IDEAL. YOU HAVE THE SPACE FOR TWO LARGE BEDS, A CLOSET, A CHEST OF DRAWERS, A WRITING DESK AND A VANITY TABLE. IF YOU WERE INCLINED TO WRITE YOUR MEMOIRS OR YOUR MASTERPIECE, THIS WOULD BE A GOOD ROOM IN WHICH TO DO IT. YOU HAVE HERE, A WIDE WRITING DESK, A PLEASANT VIEW OF THE GARDEN BELOW, WHICH CHANGES WITH EACH SEASON, AND AN EXPANSIVE VIEW OF THE CITY AND SEAPORT BEYOND.

THE PRESENCE OF THE VANITY TABLE WITH ITS CENTRAL, STATIONARY MIRROR AND TWO, MOVABLE, SIDE-MIRRORS ON EITHER SIDE OF IT, USEFUL IN REFLECTING ONE'S PROFILE, BEARS AN EXPLANATION. SINCE THERE ARE ONLY TWO BATHROOMS ON THE FLOOR, THE SOMETIMES LENGTHY TASK OF APPLYING OR REMOVING MAKEUP WAS ATTENDED TO, MUCH TO THE RELIEF OF ALL, IN THE BEDROOMS RATHER THAN IN THE BATHROOMS.
