François Rémond, tilskrevet (f. 1747, d. 1812, attributed)
Et par Fransk kandelabre af forgyldt og patineret bronze, efter tegningerne af arkitekten François-Joseph Bélanger (1744–1818), stående vestalinder på runde røde og hvide sokler dekoreret med drapinger og griffe ved basen, hver figur med to fakkler, der deler sig i fire lysarme. Louis XVI stil, ca. 1830. H. 77. (2)
The candelabra can be compared to a set of four currently displayed in the Dowager Empress Maria Feodorovna's chamber in the palace at Pavlovsk, Saint Petersburg, Catherine II commissioned Pavlovsk Palace in 1779 for her son Paul, at the time when Neo-classicism was the dominant style in the decorative arts. Inspired by the excavations at Pompeii and Herculaneum they purchased French objets d'art for their new palace.
The design of the candelabra in the Pavlovsk collection and the offered lot has been attributed to François Joseph Belanger (1744–1808). The classical figures are very comparable to those illustrated in: Hans Ottomeyer / Peter Pröschel, Vergoldete Bronzen, Klinkhardt & Biermen, München, 1997, pp. 220 and 221, illustrated fig. 2.
