These chairs belong to a suite that includes a settee (also in the CMA’s collection) and a tapestry made for a count and countess to mark their wedding in 1717. Furniture of this scale was usually placed against the wall in grand reception halls, more as a display of wealth than for use. Upholstered in Savonnerie tapestries, this suite was among the most treasured and expensive example anyone could own and was typically reserved for royalty. <br> <br>To add decorative and intellectual interest to the textiles, weavers incorporated symbols depicting various stories from the <em>Fables of Jean de La Fontaine</em>, published from 1668 to 1694 and largely adapted from Aesop and other early storytellers.
