Nicolas Heurtaut, maître in 1753.
Initially established in the rue Neuve-de-Cléry and later in the rue Bourbon, Heurtaut had already been appointed sculpteur en bois in 1742. He worked with numerous marchands-tapissiers and enjoyed the patronage of a wide clientèle, which counted the marquis de Villarceaux, the comte de Jaucourt, the duc de la Rochefoucault and the duchesse d'Enville. Bill Pallot discusses his oeuvre and atelier extensively and illustrates a fauteuil and a chaise closely related to the present lot (B. Pallot, The Art of the Chair in 18th Century France, Paris, 1987, p. 204).
