Mint condition
Article Abstract:
Restoration work done on two suites of the US Treasury Building revealed the richness of the architectural styles prevailing during the periods that the suites were constructed. The Salmon Chase Suite wascreated during the Rococo Revival in the 1850s. The iconography and the stylistic attributes were inspired by an 1849 gold-hunting expedition in California. In contrast, the Andrew Johnson Suite reflected Renaissance Revivalism prevalent during the 1860's at the close of the civil war. The suitewas painted in the sober colors of the period and furniture were architecturally-inspired.
