Side Chair

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Side Chair by an unknown artist is a black and white photograph of a chair. The chair has a tall back with two curved sides that attach to a shell-shaped piece at the top. The backrest is slightly indented in the middle near the top. The seat is round and upholstered in white fabric with a leafy pattern. The chair legs are curved with ridges at the top and end in a claw-like shape. The chair appears to be made of dark wood. A ruler and small sign are placed in front. The background is a plain wall and floor.
