Jean-Baptiste II Lelarge (June 25, 1711 - July 13, 1771), Master's degree January 14, 1738.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Married to one of the daughters of carpenter \u00c9tienne Saint-Georges.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n During his father's lifetime, he established himself not far from his father, in a house where his in-laws lived, rue de Cl\u00e9ry, opposite rue Saint-Philippe.<\/p>\n Jean-Baptiste Lelarge kept the same stamp as his father, I.B LELARGE.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Louis XV chairs are generally attributed to the father, and Louis XVI to the son. However, these attributions are only theoretical. Seating produced during the Louis XV period is virtually uniform in style, with elegant but classic lines. Works from the Louis XVI period, on the other hand, have a charming whimsy and a truly exquisite sense of harmony, proportion, and balance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jean-Baptiste II Lelarge died at the age of sixty, on July 13, 1771, leaving the business to his widow, who soon passed it on to their son Jean-Baptiste III Lelarge.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n Mus\u00e9e Cognacq-Jay – Paris\u00a0: Deux petits canap\u00e9s et cinq fauteuils Louis XV \u00e0 la reine, bois peint sculpt\u00e9 de roses, garniture en tapisserie de Beauvais.<\/p>\n Mus\u00e9e du Louvre\u00a0: Quatre fauteuils Louis XV \u00e0 la reine en bois peint sculpt\u00e9 de fleurs.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Attribu\u00e9 \u00e0 Jean-Baptiste Lelarge II – Berg\u00e8re en h\u00eatre sculpt\u00e9 et laqu\u00e9 \u00e9poque Louis XV vers 1760 Une large Berg\u00e8re en h\u00eatre moulur\u00e9 laqu\u00e9 cr\u00e8me et sculpt\u00e9 de feuillage et de fleurs, le dossier \u00e0 \u00e9paulement en cabriolet, les accotoirs \u00e0 manchettes termin\u00e9s par des enroulements reposant sur des pieds cambr\u00e9s.
