Maybe shadow is out of camera view.

There is some shadows from the pillows.

Are the rome measures in reall life size.

Maybe light from window is more powerful and overpowers lamps.
Set lamps on 1 light layer and sun sky on another, then use lamps light layer gain tool to increase power of them.
Also set lamps very powerful emitters so indigo does same amount calculations with them as with sun.
And use the gain option to get nice look for your taste from the rendering gui.
