This set of chairs is closely related to the open armchair designed by Klenze around 1820-1830 for King Ludwig I of Bavaria, which is in the collections of the Counts of Schönborn, and illustrated in Exhibition catalogue, 'Schatzhäuser Deuthsclands - Kunst in Adligen Privatbesitz', Munich, 2004, fig. 109
