The piece is a beautiful representation of American decorative arts from the 1930s and 1940s. The chest is depicted in vibrant colors, with intricate floral designs and motifs adorning its surface. The multi-colored palette, achieved through the use of watercolor, colored pencil, pen and ink, and some heightening on paperboard, brings the chest to life with a sense of energy and vitality. Sumner Merrill, the creator of this masterpiece, was an accomplished artist known for his detailed and intricate designs. The chest's decorative elements are a testament to his skill and artistic vision.
