Abstract
Glossy magazines, tv-programma’s en sociale media tonen graag hoe we onze woning volgens de laatste trends moeten inrichten. De aandacht voor het interieur is echter al veel ouder en werd vanaf het begin van de 19de eeuw intenser. Toen verschenen massa’s handleidingen en tijdschriften met allerlei handige tips. Daarnaast won de binnenruimte aan belang in de teken- en schilderkunst, waar het een geliefd onderwerp werd. Die verhoogde interesse voor het interieur deelden ook adellijke vrouwen in België tijdens de 19de en het begin van de 20ste eeuw.

However, the attention for the interior is much older and became more intense from the beginning of the 19th century. Then masses of manuals and magazines appeared with all kinds of useful tips. In addition, the interior space gained in importance in drawing and painting, where it became a popular subject. This increased interest in the interior was also shared by noble women in Belgium during the 19th and early 20th century.
