French Giltwood Canapé Attributed to Georges Jacob
About the Item
Rare and exceptional piece. This large and beautiful sofa is a fine example of the work of famed menuisier Georges Jacob (6 July 1739 – 5 July 1814), who was one of the two most prominent Parisian master menuisiers. He produced carved, painted and gilded beds and seat furniture and upholstery work for the French royal châteaux, in the neoclassical style that is associated with Louis XVI furniture. Examples of his work can be found in the Great French Museums, as well as at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Getty Museum. The attribution was confirmed at its purchase from Christie's Auction in Paris in 2002.
