Blue Victorian Mansion - a photo on Flickriver

            This creation is titled “Blue Victorian Mansion.” I have always admired Victorian architecture with its many gables, sloped roofs, vibrant colors, decorative railings, turrets and decorative “gingerbread.” For this creation, I tried my hand at a Victorian-style home in which I would like to live! 

Principal construction began on this MOC on 8/26/19 and was completed on 10/18/19.  This MOC measures 40 inches wide, 30 inches long and is 32 inches high. The mansion was done in medium blue with medium azure and white trim. The roof was done in dark blue gray. The mansion has three full floors as well as three towers. Two of the towers are four stories and are situated at the back of the east and west wings. The central tower at the front of the mansion is five stories and has a balcony on the fourth floor overlooking the front gardens. There are two additional balconies in the back of the mansion. The first spans most of the second story and the second is accessed through the third story of the central tower. The mansion boasts many gables and has two-story bay windows in the west wing. Also, there is a stained-glass window on the third floor of the west wing. The property is surrounded by an ornate wall completed with ornamental parts in white, medium blue and medium azure. Elegant gardens surround the mansion with a variety of flowers, shrubs and sword leaves. At the front of the mansion are two tall Lombardy Poplars. The walkway around the property was completed with white and medium blue tiles. In “real” life, I estimate the mansion to be approximately 12,000 square feet with upwards of 30 rooms.

As usual, I would like to thank everyone in the Lego groups whose work serves as an inspiration. Also, a special thank you goes out to Queen Victoria! I hope you enjoy “Blue Victorian Mansion.”
