The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The interior of a room with brown walls and a window. The room titled "Interior of a Lottery" by James Kidder, features a window with a grid pattern. The window has a brown frame and is divided into many small rectangular panes, some of which are open to reveal a view of a blue sky. The room's interior includes a desk with a stool in front of it. There are shelves on the wall to the left of the window, and a cabinet with drawers on the right side of the room. Several papers are pinned to the wall on the left side. The floor is made of light-colored wood planks. A small stool sits in front of the desk. The overall atmosphere of the room appears to be dimly lit.
