The Tapestry's in the gilded living room at Mar A Lago are from a Venetian palace.

 

The walls are plastered, stained, and ornamented with gold leaf. Seven tall panels contain old silk needlework tapestries from a Venetian palace. The panels are defined by bas-relief plaster moldings in classical bead and reed, woven, floral, and arabesque patterns. Marking the corners of the room are small panels, extending vertically from floor to cornice and outlined with woven plaster molding. In each panel are bosses in a bird and floral motif. Above each doorway is a bas-relief plaster depiction of armor and heraldic devices in gold leaf. Gold spiral columns run up the walls to connect with pendent panels from the ceiling. The pendent panels are outlined with an acanthus leaf molding. Those which are not attached to columns terminate with a column capital boss.
