The superb quality of this secretaire-bookcase cabinet indicates the work of a cabinet maker of distinction, with it simple elegance of design. There is a drawing, circa 1800, by Henry Holland for a wardrobe and another of a bookcase for Woburn Abbey, circa 1788, both of which are worth comparison. Both drawings feature elongated upper panels and square lower panels, ‘panelled’ uprights and plinth bases; see Peter Ward-Jackson, English Furniture Designs of the 18th century, London, 1984, pls. 300-301. Henry Holland collaborated with the London firm of Marsh and Tatham on a number of commissions, notably at Southill Park in Bedfordshire and also at Woburn, where they supplied the 6th Duke of Bedford with ‘Cabinet and Upholstery Work’. Related bookcases made by Marsh and Tatham for the Prince of Wales, later George IV, at Carlton House share the same panelled uprights and stepped plinth, one with ebony inlay; see H. Roberts, For the King’s Pleasure: The Furnishing and Decoration of George IV’s Apartments at Windsor Castle, London, 2001, p. 312, fig. 379, p. 333, fig. 414, p. 406, fig. 481). For a related example see Sotheby’s New York, Lot 212, 16th October 2009. The ebony line and dot marquetry as visible on this bookcase, is a feature commonly associated with furniture by Marsh and Tatham. Thomas Tatham and William Marsh, cabinet makers, No. 13 Mount Street, Grosvenor Square circa 1795-1809. Principal cabinet makers to Prince of Wales (later George IV) from 1795 onwards. Marsh retired in 1809 and the firm later became Tatham, Bailey and Saunders. The distinctive domed design of the astragals are also very similar to a design of a recess attributed to Thomas Chippendale, Junior at Harewood House, Yorkshire. See Georgian cabinet makers by Ralph Edwards and Margaret Jourdain, Billing & Sons Ltd, 1944, p 172.
