專家說明

This drawing-room chair pattern, with its palm-wreathed legs and foliated 'Apollo' lyre back, relates to that in Henry Whitaker's Designs of Cabinet and Upholstery Furniture in the Most Modern Style, 1825 (E. White, British 18th Century Furniture Design, Woodbridge, 1990, p. 215). This patterned back featured on a chair from the Jennie Lind collection, illustrated in G. Beard and J. Goodison, English Furniture 1500-1840, Oxford, 1987, p. 261, fig. 8.
