拍品專文

The front posts correspond closely to the `handsome four poster bedstead' supplied by Gillows for Sir Charles Tempest's Green Room at Broughton Hall, Yorks, in 1841 at a cost of £26 plus £10.2s.612d for green twill chintz, twill-lining and fringes (see Susan E. Stuart Gillows of Lancaster and London 1730 - 1840, Woodbridge, 2008, vol. I, pp. 355-356 and pl. 420). Sir Charles's bed had a mahogany cornice which were fashionable again, the painted cornice featured on the present lot may therefore have been pre-existing and the bed supplied to fit.
