1915 is when the piece written and set (although it doesn't give a date) the atmosphere and grimness of the tale seems to imply a dark time. The image on the right I really like. I love the textures and clutter which the room hold. I like the idea of the insect having collected a lot of pieces because he never leaves the room. Plus the room looks very broken and unattended, I think if this was done then in contrast a neat family room could work very effectivley.
