專家說明


These fauteuils relate particularly to those fashioned by Jacob for the Salon de la Reine in the Château des Tuileries as well as to the one he supplied in 1787 for the Château de Saint-Cloud. The latter is now in the Metropolitan Museum in New York and is illustrated in M. Jarry, Le siège français, Fribourg, 1973, pl. 247.
