wood, upper and lower part both with
two doors enclosing shelves and drawers
of oak. c. 1800. H. 222 cm. W. 132 cm.

Provenance: Pauline Wilhelmine Tutein
(1789-1881), married to the merchant
Johan Jacob Frølich (1777-1858), received
the cabinet as a wedding present from her
parents, the merchants Friederich Tutein
and Regine Sophie née Wraatz (1766-1847).
Subsequently bequeathed to their son, the
painter Lorenz Frølich, Villa Blidah, Strandvejen,
Hellerup. L. Frølich had inherited a
number of pieces of Abildgaard furniture
from the Tutein family, including a bureau
almost identical to that of Christian VIII on
display at Frederiksborg Museum. Biblio-
