Above the ornate fireplace in the Drawing Room are these sculptures of the Moirai. Also called the Three Fates, they are Greek goddess who controlled every person’s lifetime. On the left is Clotho, the spinner of life’s threads. In the center is Lachesis. She measured a person’s lifespan. On the right is Atropos, the deity who determined the manner of death. This ensemble was created by Thomas Nicholls.
