High Back Lounge c. 1938

This detailed drawing of a "High Back Lounge" by Magnus S. Fossum (1888-1980), is a fine example of design drawings from the 1930s. The drawing depicts a traditional high-backed sofa with intricately carved wooden legs and arms. The sofa is upholstered in a patterned fabric featuring floral motifs. Fossum's attention to detail is evident in the precise rendering of the sofa's shape and the meticulous depiction of its fabric.
