[Three designs for fans or candle sconces.]
[Continental, possibly French, n.d., c.1860.]
Three fan leaves on one sheet, lithographs, sheet 550 x 370, 21¾ x 14½". Tatty and stained extremities, three tears at right, crease through upper left edge of top image.
In the top design, devil-like characters and malevolent monkeys burn an artist's canvasses as he lies helplessly pinned to the floor. The middle image shows men and women in a wintry landscape riding horse-drawn sleighs. The lowest design is divided into three sections; an apparently Turkish or middle-eastern battle scene in the centre is flanked by a carriage and another horse-drawn sleigh.
