專家說明


Pierre-François-Joseph Corbisier, maître in 1768.
According to an 18th century label visible on the seat-rail of one of the fauteuils, this set of seat furniture (lots 9 and 10) was commissioned for Louis-Joseph de Mailly, marquis de Nesle (1744-1810). Son of Louis de Mailly (1696-1767) premier écuyer de Madame la Dauphine, he was an intimate of Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette and accompanied the King from Versailles on the 17th July 1791 to his visit to the Hôtel de Ville in Paris following to the fall of the Bastille, where the King accepted to wear the tricolored cocarde.
