The architect of this magnificent castle of treasures from all sorts of civilizations was a WOMAN named Julia Morgan who was the first woman admitted to the most prestigious school of architectural design in Paris in the 1800/1900s.

(PS Mr. Hearst was A man with great wealth and an even greater heart. Legit a feminist in his time who was held back from taking office because of his belief that women should have the right to vote) learned a lot of fascinating things on this day and saw some really really beautiful things from all sorts of time periods of history from Egypt, Rome, Greece, and all over Europe..☺️
