拍品專文

This beautifully carved chair is attributable to Thomas Chippendale (1718-1779), bearing all the traits of the top London cabinet-maker's firm. It relates to an unfinished drawing for a 'French Chair' by Chippendale, circa 1753–1762, in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art [20.40.1(18)]. Furthermore, it is nearly identical in design to the armchairs from the well-documented Chippendale commission for Dumfries House, Ayrshire, Scotland which remain on view in the Family Parlour. Other similar examples, also unquestioningly the work of Chippendale, have appeared on the market over the years, including one that was with Moss Harris circa 1968.
