This rococo wall light in the 'French' style with its distinctive C scrolls is after designs by Thomas Johnson as published in his One Hundred & Fifty New Designs (1761), specifically plate 46. Johnson was particularly known for his extravagant use and mixture of rococo forms, Chinoiserie and rustic motifs and was considered one of the most successful exponents of the style, which he would pervade with vitality and harmony.
