專家說明


The present marquises, albeit adapted from canapes, were part of a larger suite of seat-furniture, of which, a pair of fauteuils and sofa, was sold from the Collection of Maria Angiolillo, Rome, Christie's, London, 15 July 2010, lot 554. The design for these chairs relate closely to a drawing by the Parisian architect Jean-Charles Delafosse in the collection of the musée des Arts-Décoratifs, Paris (inv. 8440), and demontrate the widespread interest in French furniture designs across Continental Europe during the late 18th century.
