Chest of drawers - Wood - hand-painted

Small decorative wooden chest, hand-painted with patriotic and maritime motifs inspired by the United States.
The furniture features three drawers and an upper panel with a painted scene depicting a sailing ship with spread sails, surrounded by American flags, cannons, anchors, and military symbols. The front bears the date '1871'.
The small size and naive style suggest that the furniture may have been made for children's use, as a commemorative piece, or as cabin/naval decor. The frame is made of solid wood, while the bottom is plywood, an element that helps date the production between the 1920s and 1940s, despite the earlier historical reference.
