It depends on how you imagine the image to be. Is it totally dark with a single light? Can you see some dark shapes to define the environment a little?
For me, if the lamp model exists, I use point lights with inverse linear attenuation and place it inside the shade part of the lamp. Adjust materials if needed to get it to work. I'd also use a skydome, with a suitable night image attached, and ambient between 0.5 and 1. Use IDL, set bounces to 4 to get some penetration into corners.
But that's just how I imagine such a scene.
