I'm sure this main entry hall would greatly impress guests.

Tilt up to see the ceiling.   (Click for Large)

Typical painting and gilded table

This hall extended to the right from the far end of the entry, past the stairway.

Scale model of Chatsworth. I never knew where I was in the building.

Part of a wall from a wooden room purchased in toto by a previous duke

More elaborate paintings   (Click for Large)

Gilded statue of a man just after skinning himself. (These dukes are weird!)

Painting in the side hall from which we came (I stretched out the narrow image from the acute angle at which I had to take the picture to avoid glare.  That made the cherubs fat.)

Pond and fountain at the end of the main Chatsworth building (this end will be shown on Page 3)

Interior court from an upper floor

Weird bell statue in above picture
