About the Item
Original French infirmary daybed. It came from the monastery of Holtum in the Netherlands. The monastery was run by a French order of nuns who came to the Netherlands in 1901 after being exiled in France. This daybed was manufactured in France and came to the Netherlands with the nuns order. It actually shows great resemblance to the daybed designed by Jean Prouve and Jules Leleu for the Martel Janville sanitarium in the 1930s. It is plausible that Prouve was inspired by this older design.
The Holtum monastery was sadly demolished in 1976. Parts of the inventory were salvaged by the locals and this daybed was obtained from one of the locals who had it in his possession since 1976.
This daybed has an adjustable back. The seat and back are made from woven metal springs. It has wooden armrests and the cushions, filled with cotton, are original and in fair condition. The frame has a patina, paint loss and surface rust. Structurally still in usable and fair condition.
The height is adjustable from 73 to 125cm measured from the top of the headrest. The length varies from 167 to 210cm so even a tall person can lie completely flat. The seating height is 53cm.
