Armchair Jean Baptiste Gourdin (1723-1781)
1760
While the armchair and the upholstery are both from the 18th century, they did not originally belong together. The upholstery was woven for a set of gilt-wood armchairs in the bedchamber of the Prince de Condé in the Palais Bourbon in Paris. The walls of that room were hung with tapestries in the same style as the upholstery of the chairs.
