Taken last summer at Rosecliff mansion in Newport, Rhode Island. I don't know exactly what you'd call this thing (I just called it a trellis ), but in any case it's part of the rose garden at the side of the house. I thought it was one of the prettiest areas on the property, and it reminded me a bit of The Secret Garden, one of my favorite books. More Newport photos should be coming in the future.
Lovely photo! It certainly reflects a "secret garden" feeling in the angle and the lighting. One of my favorite mansions...
"The Great Gatsby" was filmed at Rosecliff, yes?

That's what the tour guide said. Supposedly part of "27 Dresses" was filmed in the ballroom, too, but I have a hard time telling which scene it is. But the Chinese tea house from Marble House is really easy to spot in that movie. ^_^

The tea house... *sigh* Need to get back to the mansions one of these days - before the tourists descend... Have you ever visited the Astors' Beechwood? The tour guides are in period costume and act the roles of the family, their friends and their staff.

No, I haven't, but I read about it in the paper last year and I reeeally want to go! Although, I heard it was being sold...I have no idea what happened with that. I'll have to see if I can find out.
Thanks so much for the fav, btw.

I'd heard about the Beechwood sale, too, but never heard the outcome. It'd be a shame if the new owner didn't continue the tours and events - I've always wanted to go to the Victorian Christmas party and the 20's murder mystery nights.
