Colour photograph showing the principal façade of the Apostolos Efstratiou Mansion in Mytilene, Lesvos, photographed by Takis. This eclectic building, constructed in the early twentieth century in the Sourada district, is distinguished by its exposed red brickwork, white decorative elements, and octagonal turret with a pointed roof. Also notable are the balconies with ornate wrought-iron railings, the monumental entrance with its semicircular fanlight, and the fence piers topped with sculpted sphinxes.
