Title
English: Interior of Burke home "Illahee"on Lake Washington, ca. 1898
Description
English: Judge Thomas Burke and his wife Caroline had a large home on Seattle's Boylston Avenue on Capitol Hill. They built a summer home, which they named Illahee, on the western shore of Lake Washington.

This photo, taken by Anders Wilse between 1897 and 1900, shows the living room at Illahee. The Burkes have followed one of the fashions of the times and decorated the room with bentwood furniture and Native American basketry. The floors are covered with a polar bear skin and Indian rugs. The ceiling is supported with unpeeled wooden beams. Mrs. Burke's large basket collection was given to the Burke Museum after her death.
