Philadelphia was the capital of the United States until 1800, and in the late eighteenth century it was a thriving city with a bustling port, an active intellectual community, and a booming market for manufactured wares. A taste in Philadelphia for high-style painted furniture and the community of decorative painters who produced it there have been overshadowed by the prolific fancy furniture from nearby Baltimore. However, recent discoveries have begun to document Philadelphia's painted furniture, shedding new light on old conundrums.
