No notes on this one; not even a number.
We don't know who the deceased was, but if we are to believe the flowers, she was somebody's mother.
Funerals were commonly held in private homes at the time this picture was taken (I'm guessing first decade of the 20th century), but something about this interior says "undertaking rooms" to me — it's so spacious, and the décor is so elegant and impersonal.
