Sir William Lever, 1st Viscount Leverhulme (1851-1925), was among
the foremost collectors of his age with as great a passion for the
decorative arts as for painting and sculpture. This magnificent
book explores one aspect of the outstanding collection of furniture
that he bequeathed to the Lady Lever Art Gallery in Port Sunlight,
Merseyside: pieces designed for human support - primarily seat
furniture, but also beds, footstools and a coach model. Most of
this remarkable collection in British, but the largest and one of
the most important sets was made in Rome for Napoleon's uncle,
Cardinal Fesch. For each piece the patrons, designers and makers,
as well as wider aspects of design, manufacture and upholstery, and
usage are all investigated in a meticulous examination of the
evidence.
