拍品专文

Alexander Roux was a French-born cabinetmaker active in New York from 1836 to 1881. The present cabinet, in the form of an Italian Renaissance credenza and adorned with a ribbon-tied plaque, is from Roux's Neo-grec period. From the 1860s, his work turned away from the Rococo Revival style and incorporated an eclectic combination of motifs from antiquity, the Renaissance and the Louis XVI style. Closely related cabinets by Roux are in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Munson Williams Proctor Arts Institute.
