Art Gallery in A Master Bath

What an amazing space. This master bath is a real sanctuary full of wonderful nautical artwork and antiques. The architecture is wonderful too. I love the clerestory window in its own dormered nook instead of a skylight. The floors are wooden, all the walls are shiplap boards, and I don't see any tile at all. The owners must be sailors and want to be reminded of their boat while at home. I love what they've done to showcase their collections in such a clever, tasteful way.

Stay cool as we enjoy the last week of August going into the Labor Day Weekend. xo

I think that bathroom is as big as our living room! It makes me wonder about the rest of the house and feel glad that I don't have to clean it. :)

Linda Sand -- That thought never crossed my mind. That huge room would be a challenge to clean but I'm sure the owners don't do it. Enjoy the long Labor Day Weekend.

I think it was formerly a bedroom! How clever to make such a large and comfortable bathroom! I wouldn't even mind cleaning it! Spread out things have few "dustcatchers! (As my Auntie Clare used to say!)

Penelope Bianchi -- Penny, How clever of you to think of this possibility. I think you're right and I love your Auntie Clare's quote about the dustcatchers.

It's a fascinating bathroom; I too love that upper dormer window. It may not be as large as it appears as often photographed rooms look larger than they actually are. How wonderful to have such a fine collection of art for a bathroom and lovely to view it all as you take a long soak in the tub. I love the towel holders next to the sinks.

The Queen Vee: Victoria, I had to look again to zero in on the towel holders you mentioned. They even put antique Adirondack baskets under each one to act as laundry baskets for wet towels. No detail was overlooked. Have a nice Labor Day weekend with your family.
