Additional Information

This unusual table is designed in the early 19th century 'antique' manner with plinth-supported ends of inverted-lyre scroll form centered by a medallion, both derived from a library table illustrated in Thomas Hope's "Household Furniture", 1807, pl. XII, nos. 6 and 7, and from engravings of the celebrated marble Tomb of Agrippa.
