François LINKE (1855-1946)
Biography: François Linke, born in Bohemia (Czechoslovakia) in 1855, began working as a cabinetmaker around 1882, and practiced in Paris until his death in 1946, in the Faubourg Saint-Antoine. Around 1900, at the height of his career, he even opened a branch in Place Vendôme. He specialized in the manufacture of Louis XV and Louis XVI furniture, ambitious both in terms of size and sumptuous bronze ornamentation, which earned him numerous commissions from the late 19th century onwards. One of his great successes was at the 1900 Exposition Universelle, where the jury awarded him the gold medal for his desk, designed by Messagé, in violet wood and mounted with Louis XV-style bronzes. The "Revue artistique et industrielle" glorified Linke, writing that his stand at the Exposition was the greatest demonstration ever made in the history of art furniture.
