The chair pattern, with reeded columnar legs and grisaille medallion depicting sporting youths in antiquity, corresponds to that of a pair of chairs acquired in 1899 by the South Kensington Victoria and Albert Museum (R. Edwards, The Dictionary of English Furniture, London, 1954, vol. I, fig 258). The latter also feature figurative tablets on the crest rails. A pair of similar chairs was sold Christie's London, 11 April 1991, lot 95.
