介绍（中）	正如18世纪法国家具的情况一样，这张桌子的用途不同，在这种情况下，既写作又穿衣。顶部安装的绿色摩洛哥皮革面板以及中央抽屉中的书写滑轨使这张桌子适合写信。顶部的方形可调镜子和两个带盖的隔间，用于存放洗漱用品，也将这件物品标识为梳妆台。侧轨下方的标记M.CARLIN表示此表　由著名的橱柜制造商马丁·卡林（Martin Carlin）制作，以其由玛丽·安托瓦内特女王（Queen Marie Antoinette）和许多法国贵族委托制作的优雅家具而闻名。这张桌子的长方形和四个方形的锥形桌腿是新古典主义风格的特点。这张桌子可能制作于1785年左右，就在法国大革命之前，可能是最后一张桌子之一　卡林的作品它的简单性不同于卡林为法国宫廷制作的珍贵家具，这些家具通常安装有漆板或Sèvres瓷板。室内的不寻常的装饰，特别是防止油渍溢出的大理石板，以及可调节的镜子，可能表明这张桌子可能是一位著名女演员（如索菲·阿诺德（Sophie Arnuld）或拉吉玛德（La Guimard））拥有的，作为舞台化妆室的化妆台。
介绍（英）	As was often the case with eighteenth-century French furniture, this table was intended for different purposes, in this case both writing and dressing. The green morocco leather panel fitted in the top as well as the writing slide in the central drawer makes this table suitable for letter writing. The square adjustable mirror inside the top and the two lidded compartments for the storage of toiletries also identify this piece as a dressing table. The marks M. CARLIN beneath the side rails indicates that this table　was made by Martin Carlin, a celebrated cabinet-maker known for his elegant pieces of furniture commissioned by Queen Marie-Antoinette and many French aristocrats. The table's rectangular shape and its four square tapering legs are characteristic of the neoclassical style. Probably made around 1785, just before the French Revolution, this table may have been one of the last　pieces executed by Carlin. Its simplicity differs from the precious furniture, frequently mounted with lacquer panels or Sèvres porcelain plaques, Carlin made for the French court. The unusual fittings of the interior and especially the marble slab for protection against spilled unguents as well as the adjustable mirror may suggest that this table was perhaps owned by a celebrated actress (such as Sophie Arnould or La Guimard) as a make-up table for a stage dressing room.
