More about this artwork

The painting portrays an ornate armoire, a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of the early 20th century. Created by Edwin Foley in 1910-1911, the representation highlights the elegance of ebony adorned with detailed inlays of engraved brass and white metal. The armoire stands regally within a richly appointed room, its commanding presence emphasized by intricate patterns and heraldic shield motifs centered on the doors. These shields feature vibrant blue tones that contrast beautifully against the dark, polished wood, making them the focal point of the piece.The armoire's surroundings are equally lavish, with wall detailing that complements its grandeur. This piece not only serves as a functional object of storage but also as a magnificent work of art, reflecting the opulent aesthetic preferences of its time. Foley’s artwork captures the luxurious essence of decorative furniture design in the early 1900s, offering viewers a glimpse into the sophisticated interiors once favored by the elite.

He worked as a designer for his father from at least the early 1880s, but by 1891 was living in Charlotte Street, Marylebone, with his wife Louisa Maud (nee Hayford), whom he married in 1882. They had three children, Conrad Hayford (b. 1885), Hubert Edwin (b. 1887) and Alan Victor (b. 1888).
