Armchair after 1756

This elegant, gilded armchair, created by Jean-Baptiste Lebas after 1756, exemplifies the refined craftsmanship of the French Rococo period. The chair's graceful, S-shaped legs and intricately carved frame, paired with the rich, crimson damask upholstery, showcase the era's love for intricate detail and opulent materials. The chair's delicate ornamentation and elegant proportions make it a captivating example of French furniture design, and it currently resides in the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
