A Late 18th Century Fan in the Grand Tour Style, the monture of ivory, the gorge sticks shaped throughout with different detail to the lower gorge, the upper guards also carved and pierced. The double paper leaf shows a central cartouche of a barely clad Venus with three cherubs, seemingly at play. Side vignettes contained within formal borders show cherubs with shells, and the reserves are filled with classical columns, floral wreaths, stylised vases and small faces. The verso is painted in pastels with butterflies and insects within a slender leafy border. Guard length 10.5 inches or 26.5cm. Both guards appear to have been reinforced at the shoulder under the leaf. Three of the gorge sticks are warped, seen mainly when the fan is closed. A leaf repair is evident approx. 1 inch up to the very left, albeit quite hard to spot.
