Description

The image captures the interior corner of a cottage. The area only has seating for two; one chair at the dining table on the left and one in the corner next to a small side table. The walls are covered by racks of plates, and cabinets made of dark wood. On the right side wall a grandfather clock stands between the corner chair and the door. The room with only the essential furniture has no carpet, but pieces of concrete slabs as a floor.
