Looking out over the magnificent sweeping double staircase from the second floor. 16th Century paintings by Agnolo Bronzino, an Italian Mannerist Painter and contemporary of Michaelangelo. In the musician’s alcove, elegant stained-glass windows, a carved ceiling replete with 18th century gold leaf allegorical paintings and two immaculately restored archangels perch high on a gold leaf chest, welcoming visitors with an extended arm and the promise of warm Turkish hospitality.
