Légende

Breakfast-Room at Holyrood, 1850. Interior of the royal Palace of Holyrood at Edinburgh in Scotland. 'The Breakfast-room is a nice, snug-looking room, partly wainscoted, and partly papered. The wainscoting in this, as in the other rooms forming her Majesty [Queen Victoria]'s suite of apartments, has been cleansed from the paint of other days, and has a beautifully rich appearance. The fireplace is of very bold and effective design and execution. The ceiling is coved and deeply coffered, forming a circular panel, surrounded by a very freely wrought wreath border. The coving has the arms of Scotland at the two ends of the room, and figures holding shields bearing the monagram of Charles I. at the sides. In the spandrils of the ceiling are groups of military weapons, flags, armour, &c. All the furniture is modern'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
