專家說明
These appliques comprise festive trophies in celebration of the chase and incorporate hunting horns and oak-branches suspended by bowed ribbons. The fashion for 'cors de chasse' lights was introduced in the 1750s by the celebrated bronzier Jacques Caffieri, and triple-branched lights of similar composition were supplied for the Petit Trianon, Versailles in 1809, by the bronzier Claude Galle.
