Catalogue Note
Alexandre-Georges Fourdinois (1799-1871) fut lun des plus grands fabricants de meubles sous le Second Empire et fournisseur attitré de l'impératrice Eugénie. Des ensembles livrés pour le mobilier national sont conservés dans les palais impériaux de Compiègne et de Fontainebleau et certaines pièces sont exposées au Victoria & Albert museum de Londres et au musée d'Orsay à Paris. Primé lors d'expositions importantes, il sut séduire une importante clientèle privée tels les banquiers Péreire, Hottinguer et Rothschild ainsi que la Païva. Le rapport du jury de l'exposition universelle de 1867 indiquait que cette maison avait donné une véritable impulsion à l'ébénisterie d'art.
