專家說明
A comparable chair attributed to Johann Michael Hoppenhaupt II can be found in the collection of Schloss Charlottenburg, Berlin.
It is interesting to note that while the present chair may be described as is in the manner of Johann Michael Hoppenhaupt II(1709-1769), it may also be linked to the work of sculptor and stuccoist Johann August Nahl (1710- c. 1786), under whose influence Hoppenhaupt developed his signature style. The two worked together on numerous occasions, including for the decoration of the concert hall at Sanssouci which was designed by Nahl and carried out by Hoppenhaupt circa 1746-47.
