Designed in 1954-1955 for the apartment of Mr. and Mrs. Lamouroux, overlooking the Esplanade des Invalides, this chair model forms part of an interior conceived entirely by Marc du Plantier. The bespoke furniture, Aubusson rugs woven to his designs and mosaics create a setting in which the geometric lines of the furniture engage in a dialogue with works from the client’s collection, notably those by Jean-Paul Riopelle, Georges Mathieu and John Hultberg, leading figures of post-war abstraction.

The lot has been authenticated by Yves Badetz, from which a certificate can be obtained at the request and expense of the buyer.
