A close-up of the architectural details that, aside from the books and our wonderful library users, makes the George Peabody Library so beautiful — Corinthian pilasters, gilt work, and lovely florets!
From dandies in danger to the lusty dramas of educated fleas, the George Peabody Library proves that the past was indeed STRANGE!
Visit us in Baltimore (don't worry, in addition to the strange things depicted here, we also have plenty of old and rare and classy books, too).
