Summary
The Colman House, located in Diller, is a distinct and sophisticated turn-of-the-century residence, designed by German-American architect W. F. Gernandt. The house was built in 1908-9 by Andrew H. Colman for his wife Lillie. The interior contains an exceptionally fine collection of painted and stenciled walls and ceilings executed in 1912 by Charles Hansen and James Willer of the local firm "Hansen and Willer, Painters and Decorators." These Danish immigrant artists worked in Jefferson and surrounding counties. The firm also decorated the interior of the Anna C. Diller Opera House.
