based on the space between the windows, it seems clear that the picture of the frierdiker rebbe is NOT in the same place as the current picture.
we can assume that the room behind the frierdiker rebbe is actually the dining room of the house, based on the space between the windows, (and the fact that the dining room is the only other room in the house that has three windows next to each other as seen in the picture).
in addition, proof can be brought from the fact that there seem to be more chairs (by a table) behind the frierdiker rebbe, which would point to the dining room table, as well as the light in the top right corner of the original picture, (as there is a light in that area of the dining room).
also, proof can be brought from the fact that there is in fact a doorway in that area of the dining room (to the main hallway of the house), which further serves to prove that the room is in fact the dining room.
in conclusion, it seems clear that the room is the dining room, meaning another thing to prove in the minhagim of hadlakas menorah, that the frierdiker rebbe lit the menorah in the place where he ate, as is brought in seforim.

as a side note, the fact that there is a picture of this, it seems to imply that there WERE other people in the room when the frierdiker rebbe lit the menorah, (unlike the way the article stated)!

The chair is not the same chair as in the picture of the fridiker rebbe

If you look closely the picture in the picture of the fridiker rebbe you can see that the chair has a pattern on it which is not on the other picture

Oe can also see in the bottom of the picture of the fridiker rebbe that the chair had wheels on it which in the other picture it does not
