专家说明

The finely cast à la antique mounts of this impressive cabinet relate to the influential designs after the antique of Messrs Percier and Fontaine in their Recueil de Décorations Intérieures of 1802. It is likely to have been made by the firm of Georges Jacob and Francois-Honoré-Georges Jacob, the favoured cabinet-makers of Napoleon's court.
