The Gryphon House


Boston, Massachusetts

An 1895 brownstone tucked away between Kenmore Square and Back Bay restored to a grand late-Victorian style.

Boston, Massachusetts (MA) Bed and Breakfast: All the suites in this four-story, 19th-century brownstone are thematically decorated; one evokes a Victorian parlor, another a medieval castle. A 19th-century wallpaper mural, El Dorado, wraps along the walls. Trompe-l'oeil paintings and murals by local artist Michael Ernest Kirk decorate the common spaces and some rooms.

French wallpaper by Zuber dominates the entrance, lobby and second floor hallway. This particular motif was originally designed in 1848 by three different artists. It's called "El Dorado" and depicts four continents, Africa, Asia, America, and Europe. It was block-printed using 1554 carved-wood blocks and came in 24 panels. The Zuber Wallpaper Company is over 200 years old, and this beautiful wallpaper can still be special ordered even today. The Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum featured "El Dorado" in an exhibit in late summer 1997.
