A design for one of the statuettes of a surtout de table commissioned by the Préfet de la Seine, Nicolas-Thérése-Benoist Frochot as part of the furniture presented by the city of Paris as a gift to the Empress Marie Louise to celebrate her wedding in 1810, and later the birth of the King of Rome in 1811.

Although the surtout de table was never completed Thomire did cast the bronze of the figure studied in the present drawing

Two studies for the same commission of dancing women playing a triangle and cymbals, are in the Louvre and at at Bayonne respectively
