Lot Essay

Louis Delanois, maître in 1761.
Louis Delanois was one of the most important menuisiers of the 1760s and 1770s, and was among the first to embrace the neo-classical style fashionable among avant-garde collectors of the time. He supplied extensively to marchands-tapissiers, as well as members of the aristocracy such as the prince de Condé and Mme. du Barry.
