Lot Essay

Pierre Rémy, maître in 1750.

Active between 1750 and 1780, Pierre Rémy, whose works span the Louis XV through to the Louis XVI style, produced both seat furniture and boiserie panels. His production was much appreciated both then and now for the richness of its form, large proportions and bold sculptural outline. For further information see See K. Peres, 'Pierre Rémy, menuisier sous Louis XV et Louis XVI', L'Objet d'Art, March 2001, pp. 74-82.
