What a dramatic entry way this is with this well designed twisted handrail on both sides, even the amount of work sizing each baluster can be appreciated.
Can deal of planning had to go into the layout with the column and the handrail coming into and out of the fluted column. The handrail and balusters dying up into the cased opening is a great detail.
I really like the look of the volutes and how they are positioned on the the starting steps, more toward the 2nd tread.
A lot of handrail going in different directions in this view.
The handrail-flairs from the lower-level to the columns, are truly magnificent! I've noticed that these balusters are slightly different than the stair balusters (did you?) I suspect broken plinth-squares (as often seen) elicited replacement at some point.
