Artists Period of Louis XVI
Jean-René Nadal l'Ainé
1733
Jean-René Nadal Senior was the eldest son of seating furniture manufacturer Jean Nadal and the daughter of his colleague Jean Cresson. He is also the brother of Jean-Michel Nadal, who himself was a furniture maker. Nadal owned a workshop on the Rue de Cléry, probably inherited after his father's death, and opened a shop on the same street called "Lion d'Argent".
