Easy chair c. 1800

"Easy Chair" is a piece of American furniture made by Moses Grant around 1800. The chair is a winged armchair, upholstered in a luxurious yellow patterned fabric. The chair, which is currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, reflects a style of craftsmanship and design that was popular during the late 18th and early 19th centuries in America. The chair's elegant form and high quality suggest that it was likely made for a wealthy patron.
