Sweek house interior

Title

Sweek house interior

Description

Black and white photograph of the interior of a house. A large, light-colored Oriental rug covers the floor, while a fireplace dominates one end of the room. Windows flank it on either side, and a piano sits in the far corner. An armchair, and two wooden backed chairs sit on front of it. To the right of the piano, a wide staircase leads up four steps to a landing, then turns and disappears up the right side of the photograph. A single small chandelier hands from the ceiling in the space between beams that bracket the staircase. Other than the wooden floor and the stair railing, all the woodwork and walls and brick are painted white. Framed art prints hand on the wall, and the windows all have white sheer curtains hanging over them.
