The firm of 'Le Roy & Fils' can be traced back to 1785 when the business was founded by Basille Charles Le Roy at 60 Galerie de Pierre, Palais Royal, Paris. During the Revolutionary years the firm relocated to 88 Rue de L'Egalite before finally settling at Galerie Montpensier, 13 and 15 Palais Royal. In 1828 Basille Charles died leaving the business to his son, Charles-Louis, who continued producing clocks signed 'Le Roy & Fils' until 1845 when the firm was sold to his former employee Casimir Halley Desfontaines; who was in-turn succeeded by his son M. George Halley Desfontaines in 1883. In 1888 M. George Halley died leaving the business to his brother Jules Halley who then took-in as partner Louis Leroy (apparently no relation to the founders of the firm). In 1899 the firm left the Palais Royal and moved to Boulevard de La Madeleine from where it continued trading in the hands of various successors well into the twentieth century. The figural form of the current lot is based on an Imperial era Roman marble sculpture (after a Hellenistic original) housed in the in the collection of the Louvre, Paris.
