拍品專文

The Linnell firm was established by William Linnell (d.1763) in the 1730s, and was taken over by his son, John Linnell (d.1796), after his death in 1763. Like many other firms in the latter half of the 18th century, John Linnell drew influences from French design and architecture, while at the same time he employing émigré craftsmen, working in the fashionable French taste. Characteristic of Linnell's later work, this set of chairs epitomizes the popular neoclassical aesthetic of the 1780s.
