are actually boy on the left-hand side or he also changes the color of the garment on others or in other cases he drops the child, sort of min turizes her and drops her on to the lap of her mother. what he s really done is developed a formula. these are formulaic images which all have similar shape, similar decorative designs. he has these they re formulas. it s a repetition which allows him to work efficiently. and i think it s really quite striking. the girls all sit with their arms crossing their bodies die oggenaly and a kind looking dog at their feet. it really stands out. what s important here is you can see from my quotation is that john vander lin who is an academic painter points to his nephew and says this is a way in the 1820s of making a living. the people in the provincial areas are so eager for these goods, there s a fellow moving through the countryside meeting demand. unlike an urban station where you have an academic painter in an urban student where the cu
the machinery only comes at the end of the process and allows them to consolidate their goals. so then by the 1820s and 30s, you get the mixture of the windsor chairs and fancy chairs into what we know is the most popular chair at the time which is the hitchcock chair. lambert hitchcock really brings all that production home, and again, sort of like my sideboard, uses much more simplified turning so you can make these much faster. he puts the gold striping. the gold striping extends to the front of the chair. if you were to turn it around, you d see it wouldn t have that striping on the back. there are all sorts of labor-saving techniques. he now uses a stencil for the painting instead of freehand painting, which you d find in more expensive items. there is a much wider range of decorative techniques. much of this is really or you get on the higher end and you get alden spooner. for many years, these chest of drawers are believed to be made in newport. they look a lot like
the tale of two cities with gardner and sterling. they both started out making chairs like the production of joel pratt. now they are not necessarily singular products, but they are made in sets because people have now many more products and commodities in their households. so, what is interesting here is pratt makes these chairs in a decentralized mode. he doesn t make everything within his shop. he has people in different shops and saw mills and extending into southern new hampshire who are making parts for him. in many cases, he is just assembling the parts and sending them down the province as they are distributed throughout the united states. at the same time, the production begins in gardner. in the 192820s, they start thei chair making mode with machinery. they bring production inside the factory. instead of an out work system, they use a factory system. by the 1830s, gardner really pushes ahead of sterling. what is really important to me is from my argument, in the 18
