ATTRIBUTED TO HENRY HILL OF MARLBOROUGH, C.177C the crossbanded top above a brushing slide and three long drawers with keeled angles and a shaped apron 87.2cm high,119cm wide,57cm deep
Catalogue Note
This fine commode bears many features that relate it to the work of Henry Hill of Marlborough (act.1740-1778), one of the leading regional cabinetmakers of the mid-Georgian period. In his obituary in 1778, Hill was described as 'one of the most eminent cabinet-makers and upholsterers in the kingdom'and was also successful as an auctioneer,estate agent,decoratorand agent for the Sun Insurance Company.Thelocation of his enterprise, Marlborough,greatly benefited Hill as this town lay on theGreat West Road between the capital London and the fashionable cityof Bath.Hill also had many important clients among the affluent landowners of Wiltshire,including Paul Methuen at Corsham Court,John Ivory Talbot of Lacock Abbey, Henry Hoare at Stourhead and the 9th Duke of Somerset at Maiden Bradley.The serpentine form,keeled angles and shaped apron and sides are allfeatures that the present lot shares with the work of Hil.Further characteristics are discussed in relation to a group of similar commodes attributed to Hilby Lucy Wood inLadyLeverArtGalleryCatalogue of Commodes,pp.64-73.
