The Ottoman room in a museum holds a rug, daybed or couch at the back of the room and a mannequin sitting on the floor at a short table to the right side of the room, reading a book, likely the Koran. There is also a round type of altar in the middle of the room. It is not tall, and looks like it has a deep opening. The walls of the room are bright white, and all the windows have white and cream colored curtains over them. The rug on the floor is mainly red, white, yellow and blue. There is a square pattern on the rug, but only 2 of the large squares can be seen because the rest of the rug is covered by pillows and the mannequin.
