The red curtains have tassels hanging from them and are held back by ornate dark wood pieces attached to the wall. Above the windows is a dark wood piece with gold accents and four lights. On either side of the windows are white walls with gold sconces. A white bust sits on a black pedestal in front of the windows. The ceiling is white with a decorative border.
