This print showcases an exquisite Armchair dating back to 1870/75, created by the renowned furniture makers Pottier & Stymus. Inspired by the timeless allure of Ancient Egypt, this remarkable piece is attributed to Pottier and Stymus, with ormolu mounts expertly crafted by Pierre E. Guerin. The chair's design reflects a harmonious blend of American craftsmanship and Egyptian aesthetics. Its sturdy frame is constructed from rosewood adorned with ash juniper and burl maple veneer, creating a rich tapestry of colors that captivate the eye. The intricate ormolu mounts add a touch of opulence and elegance to this already stunning creation. With its woven tapestry fabric upholstery depicting scenes reminiscent of Mizraim (ancient Egypt), this armchair becomes not only a functional piece but also an artistic masterpiece in its own right. It effortlessly transports you back in time, evoking the grandeur and mystique associated with ancient civilizations. Currently housed at the Art Institute Chicago, this heritage art exemplifies the exceptional skill and attention to detail characteristic of Pottier & Stymus' manufacturing company during the 19th century in America. This armchair stands as a testament to their enduring legacy within the world of decorative arts. As we gaze upon this extraordinary work, we are reminded of how art transcends time and borders – uniting cultures through shared appreciation for beauty and craftsmanship.
