25 
ROOMS in 
the APARTMENT of J. 
THEUS MUNDS, 
Esq., NEW YORK CITY 
In the library there is 
an unusual use of 
original V enetian 
panels from which 
decorations are taken 
for the embellishment 
of the bookcase. The 
■window is trellised, 
parts of wrought iron 
gates being used in 
the scheme. A lead 
garden figure stands 
in the middle of this 
wild bower. The dec¬ 
orations were by Emil 
Feffercorn 
Most of the furniture 
in the library is Ital¬ 
ian, including a beau¬ 
tiful Venetian tray 
table under the win¬ 
dow. Venetian porce¬ 
lain appliques of the 
ISth Century are used 
for wall lights. Two 
old wrought iron can¬ 
dlesticks of imposing 
size add a touch of 
interest. A beautiful 
walnut Queen Anne 
secretary looks quite 
at home in this Ital¬ 
ian setting
