專家說明
This important bedroom suite is centred around a commode coiffeuse, index number 286 in the Linke archives and titled 'commode acajou surmountée d’une psyche Louis XV’. The commode was made either with or without a swing mirror in two sizes: this being an example of the larger. Another apparently identical is in collection of the Mariner’s Museum, Newport, Virginia and another with matching bed are illustrated in a period photograph of the bedroom of the Arabella Huntington townhouse in New York, now rebuilt as Tiffany’s on 5th Avenue (see C. Payne, François Linke, 1855-1946 - The Belle Epoque of French Furniture, Woodbridge, 2003, pl. 249 p. 231).
