Description
Tracings on Japanese paper
A lightly rendered architectural drawing mounted within a wide cream-colored mat and dark frame. The drawing shows an elevation view of a built-in interior feature with symmetrical vertical elements, including tall columns or posts topped with decorative forms. At the center are cabinet-like structures and paneling, flanked by matching side sections. Faintly sketched ornamental details, including foliage or a wreath-like motif, appear near the upper left portion of the central structure. Below the elevation is a secondary drawing showing a plan view of a long table or horizontal surface supported by cross-shaped structural ends. Handwritten labels are faint but include “Dining Room Cabinet” and “Dining Room Table,” with additional light notes in the upper right corner referencing “D. D. Martin Residence, Buffalo.” The lines are very pale, suggesting pencil or light ink on aged paper.
