Armario alto
c. 1938
This isn't just any old dresser; it's a magnificent highboy, rendered with meticulous detail by Elisabeth Fulda around 1938. The piece features a dramatic swan-neck pediment topped with a classical bust, sitting above a tower of drawers with elegant brass handles. Down below, it stands on graceful cabriole legs that end in classic ball-and-claw feet, looking ready to grip the floor. Although created during the modernist era, Fulda's illustration captures the opulent, antique charm of 18th-century American furniture design, preserving a piece of history on paper.
