Lot Essay

The design of this lot is closely related to that of Messers. Morgan and Sanders, first published in Ackermann's Repository of Arts, July 1811 (P. Agius, Ackermann's Regency Furniture & Interiors, Marlborough, 1984, p. 60, pl. 29). A chair of similar design and attributed to Morgan and Sanders is in the collection of Trinity College, Oxford (R. Edwards and P. Macquoid, The Dictionary of English Furniture, London, rev. ed., 1954, vol. II, p. 291, fig. 15).
