Elizabeth Pomada and Michael Larsen welcome you to the Painted Ladies web site--your online source for the wonders of Victorian architecture. Here's a preview of Zalipie, the first chapter of Painted Architecture of the World, the second chapter on Camogli, and the chapter on Nice.

Check out our new page, where we show you how we decided to Practice What We Preach. There's a discussion of the work that we had done to beautify our own lady, as well as a series of images showing her before, during and after!

Please also feel free to check out our library of Painted Lady books--just click the bookcase to enter. We're always looking for new Painted Ladies: Victorians painted in three or more colors that highlight the architecture's ruffles and flourishes. If your house is a Painted Lady, or you know of one, please mail us a photograph and we may be able to feature it in our next book. We'll keep them on file and then call before we come by to shoot for the next book. Please tell us if you'd like us to post your house on our site. Our address is:


Michael Larsen & Elizabeth Pomada
1029 Jones Street (between California and Pine)
San Francisco, California 94109
(415) 673-0939

If you prefer, you can also reach us via e-mail. Please do. We'd love to hear from you.
