This is a design drawing of a French commode table by Thomas Chippendale, a renowned English furniture designer and craftsman, created in 1753. The drawing, part of his “Chippendale Drawings, Vol. II,” shows the table in detail with front and side views, allowing for precise construction. The commode's elegant, curving form and intricate carvings exemplify the Rococo style, a popular design movement of the 18th century.
