拍品专文


This cabinet is closely related to a number of Japanese cabinets (on English stands) which entered the Spencer collections at Althorp circa 1744 via Sarah, Duchess of Marlborough (1660-1744), who left her considerable personal inheritance to her favourite grandson, the Hon. John Spencer (1708-1746), father of the 1st Earl Spencer (1734-1783). Sarah Churchill, no doubt influenced by her exposure at Court to Queen Mary's fabled collections at Kensington Palace and Hampton Court, was a great collector of lacquer-ware and her remarkable collection of 'exotic' wares and all manner of 'Japan' are tantalisingly recorded in a series of little-known inventories dating from the late 17th Century. There is one Japanese cabinet in particular with near identical engraved copper fittings to those on this lot, which is now located in the Spencer Gallery at Althorp.
