This panel, the one at the bot¬ 
tom of the page and the one 
shown opposite belong to a 
set painted by the French ar¬ 
tist Jolly for Francis Cottenet. 
This is a glimpse of the Hudson 
A companion piece to 
the two circular painted 
panels shown opposite, 
this colorful study of 
ducks brings an old- 
fashioned air to a mod¬ 
ern dining room 
This painted panel, and the 
one shown opposite, both cop¬ 
ies by Victor White of panels 
by Herbert Robert, hang in 
the dining-room of Mrs. E 
V. Douglas 
Color and the dignity of bal¬ 
ance can be given a dining 
room by using two painted 
panels, copied after designs by 
Robert, and hung above twin 
console tables 
The panels by Jolly are dated 
1858 and in both method of 
painting and color are char¬ 
acteristic of that time. They 
bring into a modern apart¬ 
ment a Victorian note
