Rocking Chair c. 1937

"Rocking Chair" is a watercolor painting by Henry Meyers, executed around 1937. The artwork, measuring 27.7 x 23.9 cm, depicts a wooden rocking chair with a woven seat. The detail of the chair's arm, detached from the main figure, suggests a study of the object's form and construction. The minimalist composition and meticulous rendering of the chair are characteristic of Meyers' meticulous style, a notable American artist active in the late 19th and 20th centuries.
