An important French Napoleonic bronze Pierrier cannon dated 1804 model 1786, the base ring inscribed “Fecit de J’ - Denis”, “an. 12” (1804) and the swell of the muzzle features a large feathered arrow. Further inscribed on the trunnions, one side bearing the gun’s weight, "173" French pounds and the other ‘No. 222’. 40½in. (103cm.) long, bore 2 7/8in. (7.3cm.). *The year "an.12" if from the French Republican Calendar which lasted for thirteen years from late 1793 until 1805. The model 1786 is regarded as the first French standardized swivel gun and remained in use by the French Navy until 1854. Pierrier’s were relatively short guns, this example measuring 40½in. (103cm.) firing medium weight (1lb), solid shot, designed for close range engagement. In this period, bronze cannons were preferable but more costly in material and time to produce, thus only a small percentage of cannons made in France were bronze, most were of iron. Consequently, any bronze artillery of this age is rare since many were melted down and the valuable metal recast as required for later conflicts. *Good condition.

A pair of 19th Century figural vases stamped HN, champlevé, bronze, and gilt metal, the openwork cup held aloft by a trio of putti, each 6½ inches high (16.5cm), missing original glass liners (2) * Fairly dirty and tarnished. Most of the gilt, particularly to the putti has rubbed away. Knocks and scuffs consummate with age. Patches of white rust to the underside of one example in particular. For further information please contact department.

Perasso was chosen as the inspiration for his supposed age and revolutionary activity, while his presence in the fight against Austria reflected the stance taken by early fascism, and by Italy's victories in World War I.
