Follower of François Boucher, French, 1703-1770, portrait of a young woman holding a white dove, Portrayed half-length and wearing a light blue drape, the hair adorned with strands of pearls, pastel on paper, 77.1cm high, 61.6cm wide (portrait), 133cm high, 91cm wide overall including giltwood and gesso Louis XVI style frameFootnotes: Note: The present pastel, which shows a young woman 'en déshabillé', rendered in soft clouds of pale, delicate colour, recalls the works of leading Rococo painter and draughtsman François Boucher. Known for his elegant portraits and genre scenes, which were often inspired by mythological characters and narratives, Boucher's compositions were not only popular with his royal and noble patrons, including the King's mistress, Madame de Pompadour (1721-1764), but also with larger audiences, as his compositions were widely circulated as prints and illustrations. The contemplative female subject depicted here is reminiscent of the central figure in Boucher's 'Toilette of Venus', held in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (20.155.9).

Ottomeyer and P. Pröschel, Vergoldete Bronzen, Munich, 1986, vol.

A set of four related candelabra in the Wallace Collection have been attributed in part to the ciseleur-doreur François Rémond (F-142-5, F146-7).

An Ilkhanid style lustre painted cobalt and turquoise moulded pottery tile, Qajar Iran, 19th century,   Of rectangular form, the main lower register with scrolling vine around the powerful figure of a dragon with head turned over its shoulder, a band of bold palmette vine above and simple band below, probably intended as a replacement tile for the architectural complex of Takht-Sulaiman (c.1270AD), the summer royal palace of the Ilkhanid ruler Abaqa (r.1265-82) located in north-western Iran, 35.5 x 37cm     Footnotes: Note: This is a 19th century replacement tile of one of a well-known series of tiles depicting dragons that are thought to come from the complex at Takht-i Sulayman.

A well-published lustre example is in the Victoria and Albert Museum (Linda Komaroff and Stefano Carboni (eds.), The Legacy of Ghengis Khan, exhibition catalogue, New York, 2002, cat.100, ill.p.95). A further example was sold from the collection of Charles Gillot in our Paris saleroom, 4 March 2008, lot 4.

Isl 191).  Condition Report: The corners and edges are clean safe for two small losses near the upper right and upper left corners. This tile is broken, restored and repaired form one break to its upper left corner. The restored break line is visible from the reverse. Under U. V the tile gives a dull rendering overall suggesting it may have been coated to attenuate any reflection when inspected under ultraviolet light.
