A similar set of six wall-lights with the same distinctive flame final, but with three branches, is in the J. Paul Getty Museum in Malibu, California (illustrated in A. Sassoon and G. Wilson, Decorative Arts in the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles, 1986, p. 61, cat. 134). They derive from a design executed circa 1770 by Richard de Lalonde, also in the J. Paul Getty Museum, Malibu (79 GA 179, illustrated here). The design was discussed in H. Ottomeyer, P. Pröschel et.al., Vergoldete Bronzen, vol. I, Munich, 1986, p. 172, fig. 3.5.3 and was then attributed to Jean-Louis Prieur.
