AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A finely detailed watercolour depicting a richly furnished mid-19th-century salon, dated 1852. The artist captures the refined atmosphere of a bourgeois interior with remarkable precision: upholstered chairs, an ornate central table, patterned carpets, and lace-trimmed curtains fill the room with warmth and sophistication. The composition opens into a second chamber through a pair of white double doors draped with green curtains, enhancing the sense of depth.
Decorative wall paintings, framed prints, and a tiered corner shelf emphasise the cultivated taste of the period. The careful rendering of textiles, furniture, and light makes this an exceptional document of interior design in the Biedermeier–historicist transition era. A work of meticulous craftsmanship and strong documentary value.
Watercolour on paper, 34.5 × 44.5 cm, dated 1852.
