Description

Pair of armchairs; Glasgow School, c. 1920. Beech wood and mother of pearl. Measurements: 75.5 x 54.5 x 40.5 cm. Pair of armchairs with the same design and aesthetic finish. Each of the chairs is supported on three legs, joined by wooden crossbeams. These support a seat with a triangular perimeter to which is attached a semicircular backrest that breaks with the geometric rigidity. The armchairs are highly reminiscent of some of the works of Ernest Archibald Taylor (1874 - , 1951), better known as E A Taylor, was a Scottish artist, oil painter, watercolorist and engraver, and designer of furniture, interiors and stained glass. He moved to Salford, where he designed for George Wragge Ltd, producing numerous stained glass designs, including domestic works for the Scottish engineer Sir William Arrol at Seafield House in Ayr. Between 1911 and 1914, Taylor lived in Paris, where they established an art school, the Shearling Atelier.
