Design for double doors decorated in the rococco style 1867

This watercolor design by Jules-Edmond-Charles Lachaise is a detailed plan for double doors in the Rococo style. Created in 1867, the design features a decorative panel above the doors, with a prominent gold frame and intricate floral patterns painted in delicate red and white hues against a light background. The Rococo style, characterized by its ornate and asymmetrical details, is evident in the graceful curves and elaborate ornamentation of the design. This piece, housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, provides a glimpse into the refined aesthetics of interior design during the 19th century.
