    Every three years, I attend an international PhotoHistory Symposium in Rochester, NY. The symposium is sponsored by a photographic society and attendees get to tour George Eastman’s mansion. Yep ... the George Eastman who founded Kodak and shaped photography.

    Not only was Eastman an amazing man, he lived in an extravagant mansion and had amazing taste. Here are some pictures of the interior from my 2009 visit.
