Condition
The illustration is not completely accurate, the gilding is actually less worn than on the image. Good overall condition. A few scattered chips to the gesso on the more exposed areas consistent with age and exposure. Marble top broken and well restored with expected chips, especially on the rear edge. Very attractive design, good proportions.

Catalogue Note
Daniel Marot (Paris 1663-La Haye 1752) était architecte, ornemaniste et graveur actif sous le règne de Louis XIV. A la suite de la révocation de l’édit de Nantes en 1685, il s’exile à La Haye où il est nommé dessinateur de la cour. Marot a publié ses dessins de meubles et de textiles entre 1703 et 1715, directement inspirés des modèles de Le Brun et de Jean I Bérain. Avec lui, s’exporte un style personnel et caractéristique de son temps que l’on retrouve dans la présente console : le cartouche central ajouré, le piètement en S et l’entretoise incurvée en X.
