As the youngest son of King Charles V of France, Louis d'Orléans (1372-1407) received by royal prerogative the Duchy of Touraine and to strengthen his territory built a fortress at Pierrefonds. Besieged in the 17th century and left as a romantic ruin for two centuries, the Château de Pierrefonds was a cause célèbre of Napoleon III who pursued a program of restoration that was subsumed by the creation of an Imperial Residence which leaves the château today very much a 19th century imagining of a medieval castle. The restorations included the commissioning of Louis d'Orléans équestre, of which reductions were edited by the Barbedienne foundry in three sizes.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP For auctions held in Scotland: Lots will be moved to an offsite storage location (Constantine, Constantine House, North Caldeen Road, Coatbridge ML5 4EF, Scotland, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.
