PIERRE NOGARET (1718 1771)
PIERRE NOGARET (1718 1771)
Received master in 1745
FAUTEUIL À DOSSIER PLAT DIT "À LA REINE"
Lyon, Epoque Louis XV Carved walnut, relaqué
Stamped
H. 102 cm, W. 82 cm, D. 64 cm
Pierre NOGARET (1718-1771) is the most famous provincial craftsman with the Axe in Grenoble. During his lifetime, his reputation as a carpenter of seats largely exceeded the limits of the Lyon region. He completed his apprenticeship in
Paris before settling in Lyon. Nogaret gives primacy to the line over the decor. Particularly typical of his style is the animated silhouette of many of his works. The "whiplash" armrests, the sturdy legs with accentuated curves, the energetic sculpture with large ribbons and mouldings of tied rushes, carved vigorously, without overloading, well integrated into the structures, characterize this chair.
