This is a design drawing for two chamber organs, created by English furniture designer Thomas Chippendale, in 1760. The design exemplifies the Rococo style, prevalent during the mid-18th century, with its intricate details and floral motifs. The drawing showcases the artistic flair of Chippendale's work, who was known for his innovative and elegant designs for furniture and architectural features. These drawings, featured in his seminal publication "The Gentleman and Cabinet-Maker's Director," inspired countless artisans and furniture makers throughout the 18th and 19th centuries.
