This library, in San Francisco, is truly magnificent. Hand-carved oak panels and millwork grace the bookcases and the ceiling is ornately plastered.. At least two bookcase bays can be seen on either side of an ornate stone fireplace, which indicate that the library houses a collection of serious size. Very impressive.
