Touring The Rosecliff Mansion, Newport, Rhode Island 

A lost era when people lived so much more elegantly!

Love them all. I have lived in RI all my life. Thank goodness for the preservation society. These mansions are irreplaceable. I never get tired of seeing them. Lovely location.

One of my ancestors built this…Hermann Oelrichs.. it is so cool parts of the 1974 adaptation of The Great Gatsby were filmed here as I enjoyed that book in high school

Had the privilege of seeing this mansion.

Great Narration. Beautiful view & so informative. Not the typical robot voice. I wish that you had Mrs Huguette Clark. I could visit these here any time. Sure takes away my job blahs to go back in time w elegance sophistication

I love your videos, you put them together so well. As a student of the Gilded Age it is amazing to get a better look at these insane “cottages”

I was there to see it & other Mansions in the summer of 1984!!!

Gorgeous video was not able to see this one the last time it was closed going soon its so beautiful !!!!

you put together excellent videos in every way. such a pleasure to watch!

Lovely!

Such fine taste..

Very nice video, excellent music background. I enjoyed "the tour"!

Just 2 notes: Jim Fair died before building his Nob Hill mansion in San Francisco so his daughters Tessie and Virginia (Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt, Jr) built the Fairmont Hotel instead. Rosecliff has the largest ballroom in Newport.

"The Betsy" w Lawrence Olivier was filmed here in 1978

1898 - 1902 "Stanford White, Architect", (tragic death by shooting by a jealous husband or boyfriend, the guy had to be nuts as it was premeditated and done in a prestigious restaurant, tragic waste of a really talented Man). White was one of the more prominent Architects of his time and known for his works for NYC. He was well traveled and well studied in Design, hmost innovative re-crafting of European Architecture in NY, helping to raise the bar and bring Class to NYC.

Nice video, but you forgot to mention that the movie, The Great Gatsby,was filmed there!

Que hermosa gusto y refinamiento insuperable. Y diseño esquisito

Her husband led the American branch of the German Oehlrich family, which built the North German Lloyd shipping line into a global business which still thrives. In America, the name is pronounced simply ol-rick. Their ships rivaled and competed with the Hamburg-America Line, White Star, and Cunard in the glamorous north Atlantic passenger trade.

Why no one is mentioning this is the mansion from the great gatsby robert redford version?

What would it cost to build this today, with all the same stone work and wood work?

Pierre - was it this mansion that had crystal chandeliers with receptacles for perfumed oils?

I wonder who’s balcony that was over the rose garden

Nice video. I suggest using white, basic font on the words next time maybe with black outlined

JAY GATSBY 💔 DAISY BUCHANAN. THE GREAT GATSBY. 1974...2023. 🇺🇸🎭👌

Beautiful but very poor compared to the Breakers. lol

the bedrooms looked drab and dumpy. not impressed at all

I really don't like this place. Looks like a mausoleum on the outside and a victorian house on the inside. Having lived in a victorian mansion, I can tell you those high ceilings feel awful spooky and cold at night.
