Old Portraits

Lately, for some odd reason I can't explain, I have been drawn

to spaces with old portraits. I love the way they can bring balance to any room,

from bedrooms, kitchens, dining rooms, or bathrooms.

I think they can work in any space when done right of course.

 This first image is my favorite. I love how bright it is, how well modern and 

traditional elements were mixed, and how the old portrait sort of brings balance.

And love the classic white and black combination of this bedroom nook.
