Such elegance. I think I can smell the richness of the wood and the odor of those lamps. But I also think I'd go right to sleep if I tried to read in such a room. :)

Beautiful details! The scene with the dogs is tile, isn't it? I thought it was tapestry. It's all very rich and finely done.

You have shown many tiles around many years from Portugal, and I love them. I think that tiles works are a very important tradition in your country.
