LES LIAISONS DE MARIE ANTOINETTE : "Executed by Georges Jacob, this armchair was supplied for the sofa room, then called the Queen's boudoir, in about 1785. It stands before wooden carvings by the Rousseau Brothers that are heavy with meaning." GUILLAUME PICON Reference : The book "VERSAILLES, A PRIVATE INVITATION"
