专家说明

These candelabra derive from a design of circa 1785, possibly from the catalogue of the marchand-mercier Dominique Daguerre (see H. Ottomeyer/P. Pröschel et al., Vergoldete Bronzen, Munich, 1986, vol. 1, p. 283, fig. 14.4). Other eighteenth century candelabra of this model are in the Wallace Collection (see F.J.B. Watson, Furniture, 1956, fig. 18) and the Musée du Louvre (see P. Verlet, The Eighteenth Century in France, 1967, p. 30, fig. 21).
