Don't you think there's something Louis Quinze about Tushkevitch?
Anna Karenina by Tolstoy, Leo View in context
Slowly he threaded his way amongst the elegant Louis Quinze furniture, examining as though for the first time the beautiful old tapestry, the Sevres china, the Chippendale table, which was priceless, the exquisite portraits painted by Greuze, and the mysterious green twilights and grey dawns of Corot.
