Chest of Drawers

Harry Eisman

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a wooden highboy dresser with multiple drawers and ornate legs. It has a warm brown color palette, with slightly darker tones for the leg supports and hardware. The dresser is centrally positioned in the image, with the upper section featuring several small drawers above larger drawers, and the lower section being supported by intricately turned legs connected by horizontal stretchers. The piece stands out against a plain, light background.
