專家說明

The hall bench relates to a garden seat made in pine and painted green supplied to Edwin Lascelles for Harewood House, Yorkshire. The design derives from drawings held at Harewood and attributed to Thomas Chippendale for the seat, which was executed by a local joiner John Walker and professional carver Christopher Theakstone (C, Gilbert, The Life and Work of Thomas Chippendale, London, 1978, vol. I, p. 200, and vol. II, p. 204, figs 172 - 175.
