Windsor Chair 1936

"Windsor Chair" is a watercolor painting by Dana Bartlett, created in 1936. The artwork depicts a simple, traditional Windsor chair, a type of chair with a curved back and turned legs, known for its rustic charm and comfortable design. Bartlett's realistic rendering captures the detail and craftsmanship of this iconic piece of furniture. The chair is rendered in shades of brown, suggesting a rich wood, highlighting the chair's elegant lines and structural integrity. The painting's muted tones and straightforward composition contribute to its sense of quietude and timelessness, reflecting the classic style of the Windsor chair. Bartlett's work is often associated with representational art, particularly with the genre of still life, though his focus on furniture design sets his work apart.
