The fabulous staircase at the heart of our 20 Cavendish Square home is in the Italian Baroque style - fashionable in stately homes of the 1700s, but rare in London's townhouses. Come and see it for yourself at our next behind the scenes tour: bit.ly/43mC287 #HistNursing

Ornate interior staircase featuring a large chandelier hanging from a decorative ceiling. The walls are adorned with classical-style murals depicting architectural arches and columns, set against a sky backdrop. Intricate mouldings and carvings enhance the opulent feeling.

A colorful fabric banner features an individual holding a mop in one hand and two buckets in the other. Text on the banner reads, "The journey I made across land and sea to build a country not made for me." Surrounding the central figure are illustrations of a tree, the Earth, a house, and a red eye on a background of red fabric.

A display of nine colorful, artistic panels is arranged in a 3x3 grid on a wooden background.

A person is sitting inside a box made of wooden palettes, surrounded by square art prints.

A small canvas features a simple outline drawing of the United Kingdom with a red heart and green leaves in the upper right area. Above the drawing, the text reads "Home is where the heart is." The canvas is set against a wooden background.
