專家說明
While 18th Century production of Chinoiserie gilt leather panels is mostly associated with workshops in the North and South Netherlands, English craftsmen were also producing high quality leather panels during this time (E. Koldeweij, 'Gilt Leather Hangings in Chinoiserie and Other Styles: An English Speciality', Furniture History Journal, 2000, vol. XXXVI, pp. 61-101). Published correspondence between Dutch patrons and English craftsman, foremost the London gilt leather maker John Rowland (d. 1744) and a number of his apprentices, demonstrate the degree of cross-channel commission and trade in such decorative panels.
