Twee tafels 1832 - 1877

"Twee tafels" is an anonymous design for two tables dating from the mid-19th century. This hand-drawn, watercolor illustration depicts two intricately designed tables inspired by the Louis XVI style. The detail in the marquetry and gilded details is characteristic of the French design of the period, popular among the upper class. The illustration would have been intended for a furniture catalogue, as evidenced by the inscription "Le Magasin de Meubles", indicating the work was from a furniture store.
