первоклассного театра; first-class — разг. первоклассный, превосходный). The

панелями, отделывать декоративной полосой) (at cost price (по

Зофанни, (1733-1810), германо-английский художник, нарисовал много

картин с театральным сюжетом и портретов актеров, с момента приезда

в Англию в 1762 г.). The armchairs were large and comfortable (кресла были

большими и удобными). Michael sat in a heavily carved Chippendale chair

heavily — тяжело, грузно, интенсивно, густо, много, to carve — вырезать по

дереву, кости, Chippendale — стиль английской мебели XVIII века), a

хорошо известной фирмой), and his Chippendale table (и его стол чиппендейл),

опирающихся на шар = «с тяжелыми ножками с шаром и когтем»), was

баланса, фотография Роджера, их сына; to balance — балансировать,

приводить в равновесие, уравновешивать).
