EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of a Brewster Chair, a rare style of chair made in mid-17th century New England. The chair, attributed to the American School, is part of a private collection and holds historical significance. Originally named after William Brewster, one of the Pilgrim Fathers, this particular chair features ornamental wooden elements and textile upholstery. The intricate details are evident in the rectilinear posts adorned with decorative spindles and finials. Each element adds to the overall beauty and charm of this piece of furniture. The woven rush seat not only provides comfort but also serves as a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of its makers. Captured by eBoltin Picture Library, this photograph allows us to appreciate every aspect of this remarkable chair without any copyright restrictions. It invites us into an era long gone yet preserved through such timeless artifacts. Whether displayed in a museum or cherished within a personal collection, this Brewster Chair stands as both an object of admiration for its artistic value and an important relic from America's colonial past. Its ornate decoration speaks volumes about the skillful hands that crafted it centuries ago. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we can now marvel at this exceptional example of 17th-century furniture design - a true testament to human creativity transcending time itself.
