Originally a library, the Pine Room was once lined with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves. When Ima Hogg was preparing the home to become a public museum, she covered the shelves with new pine paneling patterned after mid-18th-century woodwork that she admired in a period room installed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (now in the Hogg Family Legacy Room at the Lora Jean Kilroy Visitor and Education Center).
Today, the Pine Room displays many objects in the Early Baroque style (1690–1730), including a high chest of drawers made by skilled cabinetmakers and distinguished portraits that retain their original carved frames.
