Sons of the Soil

CHAPTER I
15/29

The panels above the doorways represent gay scenes; all the embrasures, both of doors and windows, are in marble mosaics.

The room is heated from below.

Every window looks forth on some delightful view.
This room communicates with a bath-room on one side and on the other with a boudoir which opens into the salon.

The bath-room is lined with Sevres tiles, painted in monochrome, the floor is mosaic, and the bath marble.

An alcove, hidden by a picture painted on copper, which turns on a pivot, contains a couch in gilt wood of the truest Pompadour.
