專家說明

Although the elaborately-carved C-scrolled pierced legs with dragons and distinctive symmetric rocaille cartouches of the present console tables are undoubtedly incorporating style elements of the French régence period, the overall stylistic approach is under local influence and possibly crafted by French émigrés. These emigrated craftsman worked at the South-German courts in the first half of the eighteenth century, like the architect Philippe de la Guépières for Duke Carl Eugèn von Württemberg (1728-1793) at Schloss Ludwigsburg, nearby Stuttgart.
