What a magnificent stairway.  I'll pass on the art. A little goes a long way and they went a bit too far for me.

@lolakimono -Well, of course,

Heart I love it!

 Do you know, I read awhile ago when my mother was recuperating that pictures of dogs relieved stress and made people happy. I think it was a hospital or nurses rehab that recommended putting posters or pictures of dogs in the room to help with recuperation.

Isn't that neat?!

So we would find pictures of dogs for my motherSmiley Happy

We had two certified therapy dogs (cairn terrier and keeshond).  Having done pet therapy in a variety of venues (i.e., hospitals, nursing and assisted living homes, day care centers, schools, libraries, private homes, etc.) for over 12 years we know first hand how important dogs are to residents, patients and students.  Dogs do relieve stress and bring smiles, even to people in hospital settings.

 

Both Anika Heart and Brodie Heart are at the Rainbow Bridge and earned their way to a beautiful setting.  They both received many awards for their therapy work.

Well, since I'm not a dog person, this is way overkill for me.  I do like the rest of it, tho.

I think it would look much better with just a few select prints of a specific breed that is special to the homeowner.   

 

To me, this just seems like the homeowner looked for any picture of a dog to place up on the wall.  However, if this makes them happy and they enjoy their home that is all that matters.  I'm sure I have things in my home that others think look silly.

I love dogs, but this is too much for me.
