Chair 1935 - 1942

This drawing of a chair, made with pencil on paper, presents three different perspectives. It's a classic way to represent an object. I imagine the artist, whoever they might have been, carefully observing the chair from various angles, trying to capture its essence on paper, almost like a portrait. I mean, the front view is one thing, but getting that side view just right, with the curve of the back and the tilt of the legs... that's where the magic happens! It reminds me of when I'm painting and trying to find the perfect line to capture the feeling I'm after. There's something deeply satisfying about the simplicity and precision of this drawing. It's not about flashy colors or fancy techniques, it’s about looking closely and understanding the object. And that, to me, is what art is all about.
