These images are from some of the most beautiful and historic mansions in Newport, Rhode Island. They are currently owned by The Preservation Society of Newport County. The Marble House and The Breakers were both Vanderbilt "summer cottages" and The Elms was a summer home owned by coal magnate, Edward Berwind. Hope you enjoy these spectacular decorations!
