The living room has two sets of seating. The one above flanked by family photographs, and another directly across, above which hangs the centerpiece of the room: a painting by Filipino artist Felix Resurreccion Hidalgo (21 February 1855–13 March 1913), a contemporary and close friend of Philippine National Hero Jose Rizal. Titled "La Inocencia," it is still in its original Art Noveau frame and is believed to be a painting of Hidalgo's mistress in France. • LEGARDA ANCESTRAL HOUSE #2

It is simply a delight to visit these houses. It would be like stepping into another time altogether.
It's very cozy, warm and homey! It would be very comfortable to sit there with friends and a glass of vino!
Very interesting. I am sure the AC has helped with the preservation of the bric-a-brac.
It's wonderful to see the interior furnishings of a home so well preserved. I agree the air conditioning could have helped preserve the bric-bracs.
i love all this history
belle salle et merci pour l'histoire (enfin pour ce que j'ai pu traduire ;o)) )
I love houses that have family portraits on the walls! They look like a very big family, too :-D
Oh Hilda!
I do love that PIANO!
Charming decoration indeed, thanks so much for sharing!

It does look very much like a grandmother's home! Nice shots. I love all the bric-a-brac.
t reminds me very much of my own grandmother's house as well, in northern Germany. Funny.
Reminds me of my history class, but this time with kind thoughts about the colonialists and the colonial era.
