Ontwerp voor een beklede armstoel met wangen en koperen pootjes op rolwieltjes, met zijaanzicht en plattegronden onder beide aanzichten 1851

This is an architectural drawing of an upholstered armchair with cheeks and copper legs on casters by B. Winghofer. Executed in an indeterminate time, the work is articulated through watercolor and ink on laid paper. What immediately strikes you is the structured layout. The artist presents the armchair in two distinct views: a side profile and a frontal perspective. Below, two plan views offer a bird's eye depiction of the chair's structure. The composition is defined by a subtle but deliberate use of lines and planes. Faint dotted lines in the backdrop appear to offer an implied spatial context. The color palette is muted, emphasizing the linearity and form of the design rather than its decorative elements. The artist focuses on geometric precision and structural clarity, which speaks to broader concerns within design for functionality and spatial harmony. This drawing presents a piece of furniture, but does so through the language of architectural and engineering precision.
