Nice and clean. Looks good. Something that I'm trying to get better at myself is environmental/radiosity types of lighting. In this case, if you added some spots in front of the paintings, shinning back towards the ceiling spots and out to the floor, you could create the effect of bounced/reflected light. It's just a "how real do you want this to look/" kind of decision. Maybe the scale of the wood grain on the floor is a bit large. If you update it, I'd love to see the changes. Mark

I like the idea of showing art through art. The whit spotlight at center top stands out too much, perhaps add a cowling around it. Also, I like the dramatic shadows on the bust as the focus or the scene. If you'd tone down the back wall it would bring that out more, it appears to be too bright compared to the adjacent walls (mind you, I'm no expert on lighting).

I would have to agree with the others on the floor and the back wall comments. I like the image alot. -Grimpup

Very nice; I agree with the above. You might want to reduce the ambient lighting and instead put a couple very soft bulb lights in the room. I'd agree with putting some faint, soft lights where the spots hit the walls and paintings to simulate reflected light....
