专家说明

This finely constructed table à ecrire is based upon Jean-Henri Riesener's design commissioned circa 1780-1785 for Marie Antoinette. The popular model was frequently copied by the celebrated ébénistes of the 19th century, including Maison Millet and François Linke. An example by Linke, labeled index number 878, is illustrated C. Payne, François Linke: The Belle Epoque of French Furniture, Woodbridge, 2003, p. 500.
