On Exhibit
This miniature framed photograph of photographer William Rousseau is located in the Princess' Bedroom of the Fairy Castle. When he photographed the rooms of the Fairy Castle at Colleen Moore’s request, she suggested that he somehow include their presence in the Fairy Castle as a kind of signature. In response, Rousseau created two photographic portraits: Moore’s portrait, which stands on the silver table in the Drawing Room, and his own framed portrait, which sits on the dressing table in the Princess’ Bedroom.
