From The World of Interiors Website - Imperial Grandeur in New York: in a corner of Fred Hughes' 'arsenic' green front sitting room, a portrait of Tsar Nicholas I looks haughtily away; beneath him is a skeleton of a bat and a dolphin-legged table by Duncan Phyfe (1768-1854), the best-known American cabinet-maker.
