This pencil drawing, created by Charles Hindley and Sons, showcases designs for four chairs. Each chair is rendered in a simple yet elegant style, capturing the essence of the Gothic Revival movement. The chairs feature intricate carvings, pointed arches, and slender legs, reflecting the architectural details of medieval cathedrals. This drawing, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of Gothic Revival furniture design.
