Biographical History
David Roentgen (1743-1807) was cabinetmaker to Queen Marie-Antoinette of France. The family workshop was located at Neuwied, near Cologne. Roentgen was admitted as maître ébéniste to the trade corporation of Paris cabinetmakers in 1780. Empress Catherine II of Russia bought large quantities of his furniture after Roentgen's first visit to St. Petersburg. King Frederick William II of Prussia was also his client, and Roentgen eventually was appointed court furnisher to the king of Prussia. Roentgen's early work was in the rococo style, but this was abandoned between 1775 and 1780 for classical forms.
