Twee commodes 1745

This engraving by Carl Albert von Lespilliez from 1745 depicts two designs for a commode, a type of chest of drawers popular in the Rococo period. The intricate details of the design, including the ornate carvings and the elaborate legs, are characteristic of the Rococo style. This work, which is part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the craftsmanship and aesthetic sensibilities of 18th-century furniture design.
