拍品专文

These Drawing Room 'parlour chairs', richly sculpted and elegantly serpentined in the 'French' manner, reflect the George II fashion called 'Modern' in Thomas Chippendale's, The Gentleman and Cabinet-Maker's Director, 1754.
Their leg pattern, of Roman 'truss' form enriched with Roman acanthus and antique flutes, was adopted for chairs supplied in the 1750s by the celebrated cabinet-makers and tapissiers, Paul Saunders and George Smith Bradshaw (d. 1812). Related chairs of this general pattern include chairs supplied in 1757 for Holkham Hall, Norfolk (A. Coleridge, Chippendale Furniture, London, 1968, fig. 378).
