Description
The interior of the historic Bronson Church in Peninsula, Ohio is seen through a window. Beautiful window light brings out vibrant colors in the sanctuary. This building reflects the ever-changing styles from the early 19th century Greek revival of the Connecticut Western Reserve to late Victorian style. The original interior was white plaster walls over a dado of wide horizontal boards painted gold, as were the pews. The floors and window casings were local black walnut. The remodeling in 1889 to the Carpenter Gothic style added points over the windows with the original mutins of the small paned windows replaced with pointed panes. Walnut columns and an anteroom were added. The front floor was raised and the walls and ceiling were covered with pine Philadelphia siding. The dado and pews were painted and glazed in red to match the new Brussels carpeting. The reproduction carpet was manufactured by the Arthur H. Lee Co. in England on their antique ingrain loom.

Great image of the inside of this colorful church. There is illusion of wind and storm. This is a safe place. Wonderfully done, Priscilla.
