マーティン・カーリンは、セーヴル窯の磁器が取り付けられた優雅な調度品の製作で知られていました。中央の磁器の飾り板は、エドム=フランソワ・ブイエが絵付けを担当し、裏に1776年を表す文字が記されています。この作品の最初の所有者は、裕福な愛人たちのおかげで贅沢で退廃的な生活を送っていたソプラノ歌手のマリー=ジョセフィン・ラゲールでした。その後、当時ロシア大公妃だったマリア・フョードロヴナの手に渡りました。彼女は1782年にパリを訪れたことが分かっています。

NARRATOR: The beauty and refinement of French eighteenth-century furniture attracted an international clientele. Among them were the future empress and emperor of Russia, Paul and Maria Feodorovna. They stopped in Paris on a Grand Tour of Europe, while traveling incognito as the count and countess du Nord. Daniëlle Kisluk-Grosheide.

DANIËLLE KISLUK-GROSHEIDE: And we know that they visited, in 1782, the luxury shop of the marchand-mercier Daguerre. And it is very likely that, at that occasion, Maria selected this piece, which she then had sent to Russia and used in Pavlosk, this wonderful jewel box country house that they were building outside St. Petersburg.

NARRATOR: Paris was also a magnet for foreign-born cabinetmakers. This secretary is attributed to the German-born Martin Carlin. He specialized in fashionable Sèvres-mounted pieces, and you can see a number of them here.
