EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print captures the beauty and opulence of an 18th-century embroidered chair and foot cushion adorned with luxurious fur. The handcoloured copperplate engraving by D. Sluyter, based on an illustration by Cornelis Borsteegh, showcases the intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating this stunning piece of furniture. The chair and foot cushion are elegantly decorated with delicate embroidery, showcasing the skillful needlework of the time. The addition of fur adds a touch of luxury and warmth to the ensemble, making it not only visually appealing but also invitingly comfortable. Originally featured in Anna Barbara van Meertens' Penelope, Or Maandwerk aan het Vrouwelijk Geslacht Toegewijd (Penelope, Monthly Magazine dedicated to the Female Sex), this artwork is a testament to Van Meerten's pioneering work in women's rights in Holland. As an educator, writer, and advocate for gender equality, she used her magazine as a platform to empower women through literature and art. Beyond its historical significance, this image also highlights the intersection between craftmanship and interior design. It serves as a reminder that furniture can be both functional and artistic – a true masterpiece that enhances any space it occupies. With its botanical-inspired motifs beautifully rendered through drawing techniques reminiscent of classical botanical artistry from that era; this print embodies timeless elegance while offering insight into Dutch culture during the 18th century. Captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, this print invites us to appreciate both history's rich tapestry and our shared human ingenuity when it comes to creating beautiful objects for our homes.
