Lets all walk over and say hi
Anthony Frederick Augustus Sandys (1829 – 1904), was an English "Pre-Raphaelite" painter, illustrator and draughtsman, of the Victorian era. Up there is a portrait of Cyril Flower ,who appears to be the 1st Baron Battersea, from around 1850. Down here a quite nice image which reminds a little bit of coloured photographs.
House on Haunted Hill / 1959 and a 100 year old modern residence
I just love how Frank Lloyd Wrights 'Ennis House', finished in 1924, gets introduced as "built a century ago" in House On Haunted Hill from 1959.
The building used to be in bad conditions the past years and is going to get restored. More here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ennis_House
This is kind of a fast-forward-film, btw...in horror terms. Not now-creepy at all, of course. Though you understand a lot more about where modernish thrillers/horror films start.
