16. Maiden room

The room is closely connected with the person of Anna Maria, whose photograph is hanging on the wall, next to the entrance. Next to the stove, there is a metal bed (early 20th c.) and a bathing corner with a washbowl sitting on a marble top and a mirror. On the top a faience toilet set – end of the 19th century. Furniture in this room also includes a Secessionist-style set of living room furniture: a table, a coach, armchairs, and chairs. On the table and in the display cabinet we can see decorative glassware from the workshop of Emil Gallé (1846-1904). The walls are covered with paintings, e.g.: A Girl Sitting in an Armchair by Jacqes Émile Blanche (1861-1942); left from the window – Girl-Dragonfly by Wilhelm Kotarbiński (1849 - 1921); and above the coach - Krzysia with a Doll by Kazimierz Sichulski (1879-1942).
