Late 18th-century French bed
French (Paris), about 1775–80
Painted and gilded wood; iron; modern silk upholstery and passementerie (fringes, cords, and tassels); ostrich feathers
A grand bed such as this was meant to stand in a deep niche in the most important bedroom of a private residence, where visitors were frequently received. This example, known as a lit a la Polonaise, is similar to a design by the ornamentalist Richard de Lalonde (active 1780s–1790s), an exponent of the Neoclassical style. The bed frame is carved with overflowing cornucopias at the head and foot and with oak leaves and acorns along the vertical posts. The sculptural crown of the canopy is carved with wreaths of flowers, bows and arrows, and branches of berried laurel.
