专家说明

The present model of a pacing lion was conceived in 1817 as a pair with a lioness, designed by Alexandre-Evariste Fragonard to accompany Egyptian canephoric figures bearing baskets as part of an elaborate dessert service and to flank a central basket or corbeille 'canéphore' supported by four female figures.

Jean-Charles-Nicholas Brachard l'aîné, employed at Sèvres as a sculptor, translated Fragonard's fantasy into three-dimensional reality two years later. It would appear that only the lion was ever made, never the lioness. Drawings of Fragonard's project for both and a plaster of Brachard's original model are retained at Sèvres.
