  • This armchair was made for show and would have formed part of a lavishly upholstered suite of chairs, placed along the walls of an important room of a palace in Venice. By about 1680, such show chairs in Venice were extravagantly carved on their visible faces and carving of this exuberant nature became a hallmark of Venetian furniture. The most famous master carver at this time was Andrea Brustolon (1662 - 1732). Such chairs have often been associated with him but his work was generally much more figural. This chair was acquired in 1856 as fine example of the carver's art, although it was observed in 1881 that 'the appearance may be showy but the size is out or proportion, and the chair itself made uncomfortable for use'. Two centuries earlier, show was more important than comfort! (en)
