A Pair of Louis XV Yellow-Painted Fauteuils en Cabriolet
JEAN-BAPTISTE GOURDIN, CIRCA 1760
Height 35 x width 25 x depth 20 inches.
Jean-Baptiste Gourdin (1723-1781)
Born to a family of furniture makers, Jean-Baptiste Gourdin was the eldest son of Jean Gourdin (called Pere Gourdin) and the brother of Michel Gourdin. He was apprenticed to the sculptor Toussaint Foliot, from 1736 to 1741 and worked again in his father's workshop from 1741 to 1746. Privileged by his training acquired with these two masters, he was admitted to the community of carpenters in 1747, when he had not yet finished his apprenticeship. In 1746 he married Marie-Frana§oise Ferret, daughter of the master carpenter Claude Ferret. When the latter died, Jean-Baptiste Gourdin inherited his shop, also located rue de Clery. He opened his own workshop there and hired apprentices, eventually buying the whole house in 1761 under the name Nom de Jesus, near that of his father. Gourdin's clientele was more eclectic than that of his father, consisting of many European financiers, and notably the Prince de Soubise, Duke of Rohan, and Marquis de Bellevaux; the most well-known client by far was undoubtedly Dauphine Marie-Antoinette.
Examples by Gourdin are in the collections of Windsor Castle, Louvre, Musee des Arts Decoratifs, Paris, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
