Cuarto

The cuarto or bedroom of the Museo de La Salle showcases the collections of Dr. Jaime Laya and the D.M. Guevara Foundation. In it are basic bedroom furniture and turn-of-the-century essential furnishings of houses such as four-poster beds draped with colgadura lace curtains, a cuna or baby crib, a mesa altar and a comoda. The Sandoval-Laya room is named after Alice Sandoval Laya, late wife of Dr. Jaime Laya.

Another cuarto features the DM Guevarra and Arnedo-Gonzalez collections of narra four-poster bed with carved head, feet and canopy. The pink bedroom also showcases the wall and ceiling hand-painting patterned after the Constantino House in Balagtas, Bulacan. The hand painting, specifically on the ceiling, features the “trompe l’oeil” technique manifested in the floating butterflies.
