Description

Pair of Anglo-Indian chairs, XIX-XX century. Wood with bone inlay. They have upholstery of later period. Measurements: 115 x 50 x 52 cm (x2). Pair of chairs made of wood. The pieces have the same design, seated on four legs; the back ones are straight and stipe-like and the front ones are warped. They do not have armrests and the backrest has an openwork design with inlaid bone, as in the rest of the wooden areas (chairs and waist). The taste for symmetry stands out, thus achieving a dynamic and harmonious effect where the detail does not prevail over the whole. The infinite reiteration of ornaments in the Indian world is part of a representative metaphor close to the concept of eternity and the mutability of the universe. Indian art, unlike Western art, does not imitate nature. For this reason, a stylized representation of ornaments and plant motifs is very common. They have later period upholstery.
