The Notorious Mrs. Ebbsmith

Bag om The Notorious Mrs. Ebbsmith

Excerpt from The Notorious Mrs. Ebbs: A Drama in Four Acts The scene is a room in the Palazzo Arconati, on the Grand Canal, Venice. The room itself is beautiful in its decayed grandeur, but the furniture and hangings are either tawdry and meretricious or avowedly modern. The three windows at the back open on to a narrow covered balcony, or loggia, and through them, can be seen the west side of the canal. Between recessed double doors on either side of the room is a fireplace out of use and a marble mantelpiece, but a tiled stove is used for a wood fire. Breakfast things are laid on a table. The sun streams into the room. Antonio Poppi and Nella, two Venetian servants, with a touch of the picturesque in their attire, are engaged in clearing the breakfast table.
