rdfs:label: 1805~, Paris
rdfs:comment: A bergere or armchair of mahogany, upholstered in brown rayon damask, with a loose cushion. The rails and uprights are mostly of rectangular section, the back legs slightly raked, the front legs carved at the base with lions' paws. The front legs rise to form the arms supports and are carved at the top with winged sphinx heads which are gessoed and gilded. The arms are of rectangular section, the sides panelled, the joint with the back of the chair carved as a lotus head in elevation, the front of the arms enlarging as a circular drum that sits above the sphinx's head. The frame of the back is rectangular, the rectangular-sectioned frame elements panelled in the manner of the arms, the middle (lower) section set with 9 equally set gilt-bronze paterae. The outer sides of the back of the arms are set with lotus head mounts in gilt-bronze and the top surface of the front of the arms with a moulded gilt-bronze paterae. The front of the legs and the bowed seat rail are set with gilt-bronze mounts of paterae and flower heads. The back and sides are upholstered, with long arm pads on the top of the arms. The seat is upholstered and set with a separate cushion. The damask of the back and the top of the cushion is woven with a wreath, with four paterae in the spandrels. French, 1803-13, mahogany, Jacob, Ney Collection from armchair, French, 1803-13, mahogany, Jacob, Ney Collection This armchair was part of a set of seat furniture made for the French hero, Maréchal Ney (1769-1815). Ney was one of the Emperor Napoleon’s military leaders, and he came to be known in France as ‘the bravest of the brave’. In 1805, after his marriage, Napoleon helped him to buy a house in Paris, the Hôtel de Saisseval. Ney furnished it lavishly in the fashionable Empire style. He used many of the firms who worked in the imperial palaces. The firm of Jacob-Desmalter, which made these chairs, was the best-known supplier of luxury furniture. They made the chairs for the Petit Salon and upholstered them in brocaded blue silk. In 1815 Ney was executed by the allies who had defeated Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo. ARMCHAIR W.2-1987 'American and European Art and Design 1800-1900' This arm chair bears a fragmentary label '(Marsh) al Ney/ (pet)/ it Salon , indicating that it belonged to Marshal Ney (1769-1815). It later belonged to Lord Stuart de Rothesay (1799-1845). The association of the two Jacob brothers was dissolved on the death of the elder, Georges, in 1803. It seems likely that this chair, and the other Ney pieces shown nearby, were executed around this date. From the Bettine Lady Abingdon Collection [1987-2006]
