Construction of the Prentiss House in Cooperstown, New York, began in 1815. It was the Main Street home of John Holmes Prentiss, who served not only as a U.S. Representative but was also a newspaper publisher and the town’s postmaster. As would befit a citizen of his stature, the entry hall was decorated with an elaborate French ashlar pattern and trimmed with this fashionable border of foliage and peacock feathers.
