Hayward, Bertrand Piraube, in Livrustkammaren 15, no.5 (1980), pp.129-132, figs 12-14.The pair to this pistol is preserved in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (inv. no. 1990.114.2).These pistols are Bertrand Piraube`s earliest dated work. The late John Hayward identified three levels of quality by this maker of which the present pistol belongs to the highest. Piraube has been described as the most important figure in the decorative development of French firearms in the latter part of the 17th and early 18th centuries. On 25th January 1670 Louis XIV granted him a brevet de logement in the Galleries du Louvre. This appointment, which was confirmed in March the following year, established Piraube as primus inter pares amongst the gunmakers working for Louis XIV. In Germain Brice`s Description de la Ville de Paris, published in various editions between 1698 and 1718, he was described as a gunmaker who produced pieces of rare beauty. His period of tenure in the Galleries to Louvre (1670-1720) was the longest of any gunmaker. Working within the precincts of the Royal Palace freed Piraube from the restrictions of the Parisian Guilds and consequently he was able to employ as many apprentices and journeymen as his commissions required. It comes as no surprise that a significant number of the great European Ancestral Gunrooms have firearms by him. The present pistol and its pair illustrate a number of aspects of the designs of Louis XIV`s chief designer, Jean Bérain. For a further discussion of this maker and his work see John F. Hayward (op.cit.), and Thomas Del Mar Ltd, 9th December 2009, lot 266.Charles XI (1655-97) succeeded to the throne at the age of 4 in 1660. He excelled in the chase and was a fine horseman, as recorded in both his and other members of the Royal Family`s diaries. The present made to him by the French Ambassador at his coming of age in 1672 comprised twelve magnificently caparisoned Spanish thoroughbreds, complete with an equal number of pistols and guns, of which Piraube made one pair of pistols and one fowling piece. The present pistol, and its pair, must have been ordered within two years of this gift, allowing for the time lag in construction. A smaller pair of pistols, with silver barrels and mounts, decorated in almost an identical manner to the present pistol, are preserved in the Royal Armoury, Stockholm, (inv.no.4072, 4073). Given their size they were probably intended for a lady, and the materials used would suggest that they were made more for display than use.The letter `M` within a rondel beneath the breech is stamped on a number of French firearms of this period, including another pair of pistols and a gun by this maker, a pair of pistols by Masson, and a gun by Varnier all preserved in the Livrustkammeren, Stockholm (inv. nos. LRK 4334, 4335, 3626, 3627, 10036 respectively).See J. F. Hayward 1963, pp.32-47; the same author 1980, pp. 118-157; N. Drejholt1996, pp. 136-139 and S. J. Pyhrr 1991, p. 24.
