Just curious, how were the bedrooms decorated in this suite? To my understanding, in a parlor suite onboard, the styles and colors changed between each bedroom or sitting room...

Sahand,
That's a tapestry, there was no mirror in the suite depicted above.

Hey,
Why would someone want a tapestry of a guy in their room?! Anyways take a look at this link. It shows a pic of Father Browne's dresser. Enlarge the picture and you can see someone in the backround and you can try to make out a couple of other stuff in the back. You have to copy and paste the link for some reason.

Hi All!
It is interesting to try and spot things in the background when the photographer stands close to a mirror on the Titanic / Olympic, this happened a lot, you can see a lot of neat things in pictures taken of the Lusitania's First Class cabins for this reason as well 
Best Regards
Brian

Hello all! Is the C-deck the one with the most first class passengers in staterooms? I guess so since there are not any large public rooms in it!

Hello George,
Yes it was. Look here: http://www.titanicinquiry.org/BOTApp/BOTApp04.php Go to the bottom of the page for a summary of the maximum number of passengers that could be carried on each deck. - 1st Class: C-deck 347 passengers.

George,
I should have added that with a different count extra rooms on E-deck could be counted as 1st Class. That would add 129 to E-deck, making a total of 255 and an overall 1st Class total of 1,034.

Lester,
I had a look at those numbers yesterday but didn't have time to post (now I'm at work with no information to post!). Those numbers are largely inflated - this is because they consider many of the safas as additional berths.

Hello Daniel,
Thank you for that. That was why I said: "for a summary of the maximum number of passengers that could be carried on each deck." - It also includes Upper Pullman berths in most of the remaining single-berth rooms and in a number of the 2-berth rooms. - Exclude all of those and I agree that the numbers would be lower.

Lester
