So what, right?
This is an old building, c 1770. With considerable wealth coming though trade (slave and other), status symbols were common. In architecture, they came from pattern books.
This guy (surely a man) both did and didn’t follow the book. I wonder if people delighted in his deviance or ridiculed him for it.
