介绍（中）	这件塞夫尔瓷器来自希灵登收藏，该收藏由查尔斯米尔斯爵士（1792-1880）创立，他是英国王室银行家格林，米尔斯，柯里和公司的合伙人。传统上说，查尔斯爵士在十九世纪上半叶对法国的一系列访问中获得了这些藏品。查尔斯爵士的儿子于1886年被封为第一任希灵登男爵。1937年，他的后代将藏品卖给了著名的艺术品经销商杜维恩兄弟。尽管卡卢斯特·古尔本基安（Calouste Gulbenkian）和J·保罗·盖蒂（J. Paul Getty）等各种收藏家都有兴趣购买希灵登收藏，但最终大部分艺术品，包括十七件瓷器家具，都是由美国商人和慈善家塞缪尔·H·克雷斯（Samuel H. Kress，1863-1955）建立的文化基金会于1947年收购的。在塞缪尔的兄弟拉什·H·克雷斯（1877-1963）的领导下，塞缪尔·H·克雷斯基金会于1958年将这些非凡的物品捐赠给了博物馆，使其成为塞夫尔家具世界中最重要的宝库。希灵登收藏的其他作品在赖特斯曼画廊的其他地方展出。
介绍（英）	This piece of Sèvres porcelain comes from the Hillingdon Collection, which was founded by Sir Charles Mills (1792–1880), a partner in the great firm of Glyn, Mills, Currie and Company, bankers to the British royal family. Tradition says that Sir Charles acquired the collection during a series of visits to France in the first half of the nineteenth century. Sir Charles’ son was created first Baron Hillingdon in 1886. In 1937, his descendants sold the collection to the well-known art dealers Duveen Brothers. Although various collectors, such as Calouste Gulbenkian and J. Paul Getty, were interested in buying the Hillingdon Collection, ultimately the majority of the artworks, including seventeen pieces of porcelain-mounted furniture, were acquired in 1947 by the cultural foundation that had been established by the American businessman and philanthropist Samuel H. Kress (1863–1955). Under the leadership of Samuel’s brother Rush H. Kress (1877–1963), the Samuel H. Kress Foundation gave these extraordinary objects to the Museum in 1958, making it the foremost repository in the world of Sèvres-mounted furniture. Additional pieces from the Hillingdon Collection are elsewhere on display in the Wrightsman Galleries.
