Photograph of the Green Drawing Room, Room 196, at Windsor Castle. It is filled with Morel and Seddon seated furniture covered in (green) silk, with distinctively curved 'klismos' backs (RCINs 31373, 31374, 2585, etc.); a grand piano (hidden by a sofa) by the window to left, various tables, and an Axminster carpet. There are two very ornate mirrors (RCIN 72580) on either sides of the door, hanging over Tatham, Bailey and Sanders bookcases (RCIN 68900-5) displaying Sevres porcelain, and a pair of candelabra, two of a set by Bertraud, called the Four Seasons (RCIN 31364.1-4). The fireplace to left has a mantelpiece with a pair of candelabra in the shape of winged angels (RCIN 78900) and a Thomire mantel clock (RCIN 30016). A large gilt bronze chandelier hangs near the window. The portrait of Princess Mary by Lawrence is to right (RCIN 403421).
