It is quite eclectic style as it incorporates influence of two epochs: Georgian (1714 - 1837) and Victorian styles (1837 - 1901). In days of kings of Georges English style was influenced by Greece and Ancient Rome. This style is characterized as majestic, constrained, proportional and symmetric. Walls are painted in one color. On a smooth background of walls borders, a plinth, the panels were actively used. The choice of color quite often depended on the party of light, where windows of the room were located. If on the north - warm shades, for example, pink, citreous colors, prevailed. If on the south - cold, such as azure, green colors, were used. In times of Queen Victoria - the time of technical knowledge, growth of well-being of people - various styles from all countries of the world and different epoch were used. Interiors of that time were full of elements borrowed from cultures of India, Japan, China, Mauritania, Ancient Egypt, and also such styles as rococo, the Luis XIV, Jacob I and so forth. During these period warm shades of terracotta dominated. It was fashionable to use three colors, which borders were read on three levels of wooden furnish, for painting of walls. Quite often the lowest part of the wall, simulating a socle, was not painted, but was pasted over with relief wall-papers.
