Windsor Chair c. 1935

"Windsor Chair" is a watercolor painting by American artist Adele Brooks, executed circa 1935. The artwork depicts a traditional Windsor chair with a writing surface attached to the right side of the chair's back, a style often called a "writing chair". The chair, rendered in a realistic style, is shown in isolation on a pale cream background. Brooks' signature appears in the lower right corner. Her precise and detailed watercolor technique captures the texture and form of the wooden chair.
