Side Chair

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Side Chair by artist shows two black wooden chairs with tall backs. The chair on the left has a back with four vertical slats that are curved slightly outward. The chair on the right has a back with curved and interwoven designs. Both chairs have worn, light-colored fabric on their seats. The edges of the fabric on both seats are frayed and torn. The chair on the left has fabric only on the seat, while the chair on the right has fabric on the seat and a slight bulge where the seat meets the back. The floor beneath the chairs appears to be light-colored concrete, and the wall behind them is a light color with some darker spots.
