This one is Herbert Draper's The Water Nymph; or, according to some sources, The Water Nixie. No matter what Draper really called it, it's still a 100-year-old painting of a subject that never withers with time: a naked lady at the beach.

The Victorian Set

The Victorian style is popular with so many people we just had to make a set to satisfy the wants of those who find it as delightful as Grandma does. Most people think of Victorian as simply being the fancy homes and furniture with tons of "Gingerbread" and bright colors.

While this is true for many of the homes and furnshings of that era, others are a master of simplicity. We hope to satisfy both styles with this ongoing addition to Artistic Habitats' inventory.

Below you will find some examples of what you will find. You will need to go to Artistic Habitats to see all of the available objects.

Once you have the exterior all prettied up you wouldn't want just some old door there would you?

These matching doors will work great for your needs. The wonderful edging and stained glass simply add to the color and beauty of your creation!

The edging colors are made to match what ever facia you have chosen for your home.

The kitchen has everything you will need to make a beautiful Victorian Kitchen. There are several different counter styles and hundreds of countertop colors to go with them.

We have islands too. One style of island has been specifically oversized to allow you to make tables any size you want! Of course matching seating is also available.

Appliances too. Antique stoves and fridges. But what about dishwashers and trash compactors? They didn't exist in the Victorian times so what we did was make 'em match with the counters! Invisible to the eye, but very functional! You are simply going to have to go to the site to see them...
