This two-bodies cabinet is a very fine example of the interest shown by Lyon cabinet-makers regarding architectural rigour and organisation principles. Indeed, during the Second Renaissance, the furniture making industry adopts the architectural style inherited from Antiquity via the Italian arts of the Quattrocento<\/i>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This cabinet comprises two superimposed bodies. The slightly recessed upper-body is topped by an over-flowing entablature and cornice supported by four vigorous Ionic grooved columns. The ceiling is carved with roses and geometrical motifs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The lower-body stands on a moulded base bordered by a braid. It opens with two door-leaves, each panel centred by a mask and four roses. The panel\u2019s frame is ornate with palm-leaves. Grooved pilasters act as lateral jambs and false-frame.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The belt is located between large mouldings with palm-leaves and torus motifs. Two drawers adopting a bec-de-corbin<\/i> profile opens in the belt. They also present palm-leaves motifs.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The upper-body is divided by three grooved pilasters. The door-leaves repeat the same ornamentation as on the lower-body but with winged putti heads instead of masks. Two braids border the upper body.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The sides of the cabinet received a more sobre ornamentation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The cabinet is topped by a dentil and palm-leaf cornice standing on palm-leaves modilions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This simple and elegant two-bodies cabinet shows a remarkable quality of execution. The cabinet-maker who authored this piece used a great variety of motifs in the ornamental repertoire. Furthermore, they have successfully associated strict organisation of volumes and important moulding reliefs thus enlivening the facade.<\/p>\n
