专家说明

A virtually identical example with the case signed Lefèvre is illustrated in P. Kjellberg, Encyclopédie de la Pendule Française du Moyen Age à XXe siècle, Paris, 1997, p. 391 pl. F, where the model is attributed to Claude Galle (1759-1815), one of the preeminent bronziers of the Empire period. Another example is illustrated in Tardy, French Clocks The World Over Part II, Paris, 1981, p. 292.
Lot 569 in this collection also has a Dubuisson dial signed 'Dub' to its reverse.
