Design for Panel Decoration 1828 - 1840

J. Hulme's "Design for Panel Decoration" from 1828-1840 showcases a female figure with wings, holding reins, and driving a chariot pulled by two horses. The intricate, swirling floral patterns framing the central scene are rendered in delicate, pen-and-ink lines, creating a sense of elegance and refined beauty. This design, intended for panel decoration, exemplifies the decorative arts of the 19th century and highlights the artist's mastery of detail and composition. The work is currently part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York, NY.
