“The English wing chair, in which we sit protected and alone and enclosed, facing the warmth of the fire, embraced by wings as if those of a soft sheltering angel … the wing chair’s heaviness and solidity stipulate a different form of life, one of security, of solidity, of immobility, of peace.”
Arthur C. Danto (1924–2013) Art Critic, Philospher, Professor, Columbia, “The Seat of the Soul: Three Chairs.” Grand Street 6, no. 4 (1987): 157–76. https://doi.org/10.2307/25007019. -
