A similar armchair with carved and gilded eagles supporting the arms of the chair can be seen in Henry Sargent’s (1770-1845) painting The Tea Party (Museum of Fine Arts, Boston). Although this painting depicts a drawing room in Boston, the scene would have resonated with people in Philadelphia as well (Alexandra Kirtley and Peggy Olley, Classical Splendor: Painted Furniture for a Grand Philadelphia House (New Haven, 2016), p. 49).
