Lot Essay

This Grecian formed seat with a central palmette-flanked rosette was popularised by Messrs. Morgan and Saunders of Trafalgar House, Catherine Street, through their illustration of a related window seat in R. Ackermann, The Repository of Arts, London, 1809 (see P. Agius, Ackermann;s Regency Furniture and Interior, London, 1984, p.39).
