This pair of late 18th century grey-painted and parcel-gilt armchairs, after a design by John Linnell, are part of the English furniture included in a sale at Christie’s New York on September 26. The estimate is $3000-5000.
Titled Rooms as Portraits, the 228-lot sale features pieces from two private residences in New York and Los Angeles decorated by designer Michael S Smith reflecting an aesthetic that blends English country house with European style and American modernism.
