English Victorian Leather Wingback Armchair Painted by Ira Yeager

About the Item
Whimsical 19th century English Victorian wingback armchair featuring painted leather by artist Ira Yeager (American 1938-2022). The chair features a painted bust of a masked gentleman "Martin Falkes" and dated 1802. The English man has a bright green coat and an apple above his head. The entire chair has painted leather surfaces to give the piece an aged patina. The generous seat is topped with a loose seat cushion in a red velvet fabric that is faded. The frame is crafted from mahogany with a serpentine apron supported by Queen Anne style cabriole legs. The chair was beautifully crafted and very comfortable. Lovely profile with classic, large wings and English rolled arms. Provenance: From the Yager Galerie Calistoga, CA.
