14. Living room

This is the place where the family used to meet and spend time reading or playing music together. It is fitted with an Empire style set of furniture (a coach, armchairs, and a table – 2nd half of the 19th c.), a chest of drawers, a concert piano (3rd quarter of the 19th c.) from the Warsaw workshop of Antoni Krall and Józef Seidler. In the corner of the room we can see a decorative faience vase from a workshop in Sevres (2nd half of the 19th c.). On the walls there are, inter alia, Portraits of Zofia and Jan Reszke by Józef Simmler (1823-1868), and Elza (on the right from the entrance) by Ferdinand Leek (1859-1923).
