Painted Room
42 Amess Street,, CARLTON NORTH VIC 3054 - Property No B7155

It has an unusual high parapet and cast-iron freize on the verandah, but the most extraordinary aspect of the house is the painted decoration of the main lounge room, probably dating from the original construction. All the walls and ceiling have been painted out with decoration that is startlingly elaborate for such a small cottage, and features a relatively early use of Art Nouveau elements, and a range of techniques.
