CANAPE CORBEILLE D'EPOQUE LOUIS XV
ATTRIBUE A PIERRE NOGARET, MILIEU DU XVIIIe SIECLE
Pierre Nogaret (1718-1771), reçu maître à Lyon en 1745 est sans conteste le menuisier en siège lyonnais le plus réputé du XVIIIe siècle. La silhouette mouvementée de ses sièges sont caractéristique de son travail. Accordant la primauté à la forme plus qu’au décor, ses ouvrages sont particulièrement recherchés pour la justesse de leur ligne. Les moulures énergiques et le décor floral sculpté avec vigueur sont également des marqueurs de son travail.
Le canapé que nous présentons ici reprend avec élégance toutes les grandes caractéristiques des ouvrages de Pierre Nogaret. Un canapé d'un modèle similaire fut vendu chez Christie's à Paris le 19 décembre 2007, lot 297.
