介绍（中）	17世纪新英格兰最壮观的椅子是连接在一起的橡木扶手椅，其面板和框架背面的雕刻方式与胸部相同。基于英国文艺复兴时期和风格主义的设计，这个例子以其坚实、有力的形式通过雕刻而活跃起来，具有威严的存在感。它巨大的后柱在前表面朝着顶部和脚部逐渐变细，导致背部倾斜以适应人体形态，腿部变轻。雕刻由一个双拱廊、带有风格化树叶的交叉新月和S形卷轴组成，创造了半圆、圆形和垂直口音的生动互动。方柱，而不是用来装饰前立柱的转弯（礼仪主义装饰词汇的一部分），是新英格兰时期家具中的一个不同寻常的特征，主要以这把椅子和五把相关的椅子而闻名。这些椅子中有几把有着与马萨诸塞州埃塞克斯县有关的历史。
介绍（英）	The most imposing chairs in seventeenth-century New England were the joined-oak armchairs with panel-and-frame backs carved in the same manner as chests. Based on English Renaissance and Mannerist designs, this example, with its solid, vigorous form enlivened by carving, has a commanding presence. Its massive rear posts taper on the front surface toward the crest and foot, resulting in a back that slants to accommodate the human form and in legs that are lightened. The carving, which consists of a double arcade, intersecting lunettes with stylized foliage, and S-scrolls, creates a lively interplay of semicircles, circles, and vertical accents. The square pillars, used instead of turnings to ornament the front posts (part of the vocabulary of Mannerist decoration), are an unusual feature in New England furniture of the period known primarily on this and five related chairs. Several of these chairs have histories associating them with Essex County, Massachusetts.
