A SUITE BY MARSH & TATHAM
LOTS 127-131
This suite of simulated rosewood seat-furniture from Harewood House, Yorkshire, in the fashionable Regency Greek-revival style, comprising eight armchairs, two sofas and two window seats, is after a design by Henry Holland (1745-1806), architect/designer to George, Prince of Wales (later George IV, 1762-1830). The model is based on closely related armchairs made to Holland’s designs for the Whig aristocratic members of the Prince of Wales’ inner circle, who became Holland’s principal patrons.
