A classical apartment in Zizinia: panelled plaster, crystal, gilt and marble, with parquet and Persian rugs underfoot. Rooms like this are usually flattened by a wide lens, so each one was photographed from the height a person stands, square to the panelling.
The chandeliers do most of the lighting, which sets the hour of the shoot. The closing frames are the details that date the interior — a cornice, a gilt line, a mirrored reveal.
