| The camera enters a living room with scraps of wallpaper clinging to old plaster and dusty unvarnished floorboards. |
| Yellow and orange sponge-painted walls are accentuated by unpainted, unvarnished wooden tables. |
| The furniture included a forties dresser, an oval sixties coffee table and two much newer Scandinavian-style bookcases of unvarnished pine. |
| This is not a monochromatically somber piece, but a suspenseful slice of unvarnished life, mixing anguish and grief with smiles and laughs. |
| Awareness of the smooth page clouds the difference between varnished and unvarnished oil paint, between opaque and transparent watercolour. |
| There is, of course, a difference between doing favours for people you know and sheer, unvarnished corruption. |
