Armchair

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The armchair, by an unknown artist, shows a black chair with a high back and curved top. The chair has a wide seat and armrests that are slightly curved. The backrest is composed of a vertical slat in the center and two curved pieces on the sides. There are characters engraved on the vertical slat. The chair has a simple frame with four legs connected by rungs. The seat appears to have a smooth surface. The background of the image is gray. A shadow is cast to the left.
