Vier salontafels 1885 - 1895

Léon Laroche created this print of four salon tables with an unknown medium, featuring delicate lines and muted colors, evoking a sense of refined elegance and classical charm. The composition of the image is structured around presenting the different table designs in a clear, comparative manner. Each table is rendered with attention to detail, showcasing their unique forms, from the round, two-tiered table, to the more angular designs. The symmetry in each table, balanced by the organic flow of the ornate carvings, suggests an exploration of harmony between form and function. Laroche plays with surface and depth, using the flat plane of the paper to emphasize the three-dimensional qualities of the furniture. The subtle shadows and light create a sense of volume, while the intricate detailing invites close inspection. The muted palette, with its emphasis on whites and creams, reinforces the sense of classical restraint and aesthetic refinement.
