Note du spécialiste

This print/portfolio-stand, with Grecian plinth-supported pilasters, was the type of furniture described by J. C. Loudon as useful in both drawing rooms and libraries (The Encyclopaedia of Cottage, Farm and Villa Architecture and Furniture, 1833, no. 1969).

A similar folio stand was sold at Christie's South Kensington, 16 April 1997, lot 189 (£5,175)
