A LIVING ROOM of DISTINCTION 
In the home of Frederic C. Bartlett, Esq., the well-known artist, in New York City, is a spacious living room 
that contains an interesting arrangement of old Chinese banners and Gothic tapestries hung together on buff 
tinted plaster walls. Two tall Chinese black lacquer screens cover one side of the room. Black, brilliantly 
flowered chintz slip covers are used in combination with plain blue velour at the windows, a black and blue 
fabric on two chairs and a faded red on the davenport
