The House in Good Taste
·
Elsie De Wolfe
51
From
this
rose
and
blue
bedroom
you
enter
a
little
dressing-room
that
is
also
full
of
color.
Here
are
the
same
cream
walls,
the
dull
red
carpet,
the
old
blue
silk
shades
on
lamps
and
candles,
but
the
chintz
is
different:
the
ground
is
black,
and
gray
parrots
and
paroquets
swing
in
blue-green
festoons
of
leaves
and
branches.
The
dressing-table
is
placed
in
front
of
the
window,
so
that
you
can
see
yourself
for
better
or
for
worse.
There
is
a
three-fold
mirror
of
black
and
gold
lacquer,
and
a
Chinese
cabinet
of
the
same
lacquer
in
the
corner.
The
low
seat
before
the
dressing-table
is
covered
with
the
chintz.
A
few
costume
prints
hang
on
the
wall.
You
can
imagine
how
impossible
it
would
be
to
be
ill-tempered
in
such
a
cheerful
place.
