专家说明

This robust form of caned bergere or 'Library Reading Chair', with pillared supports in the French antique manner, was invented by Messrs. Morgan and Saunders of The Strand and praised for its comfort in Rudolph Ackermann's The Repository of Arts, September 1810 (pl. 19). A similar bergere was sold Christie's London, 15 April 1999, lot 87.
