Paire de cartels d'applique en bronze doré couronnés d'amours

Assis au sommet, un amour joufflu soulève à bout de bras une guirlande de roses, et son geste donne le ton à toute la composition. Sous lui, le bronze doré se répand en rinceaux d'acanthe, en nœud de ruban et en fleurs qui encadrent un cadran d'émail blanc à chiffres arabes, semé de petites guirlandes roses. La monture repose sur un fond de bois chantourné, d'un brun rougeâtre, où transparaît un panneau de tissu rose. Les deux cartels se tiennent côte à côte comme deux reflets légèrement dissemblables, chacun avec ses deux trous de remontage.

Le cartel est une horloge murale faite pour être regardée autant que consultée. Le musée Carnavalet en conserve un exemplaire de 1743 en bronze doré, où volutes, petites fleurs, feuilles d'acanthe et motifs rocaille entourent un cadran émaillé : tout le vocabulaire est déjà là. À l'époque Napoléon III, de nombreux cartels reprennent ces modèles Louis XV en bronze doré. Cette paire, donnée au début du XXe siècle et au goût Louis XV et Transition, appartient à cette longue descendance. Son fabricant n'est pas connu, et son mouvement reste à examiner en main.

Read in English

Seated at the top, a chubby cupid lifts a garland of roses at arm's length, and his gesture sets the tone for the whole composition. Beneath him the gilt bronze spreads into acanthus scrolls, a ribbon bow and flowers framing a white enamel dial with Arabic numerals, strewn with small pink garlands. The mount rests on a shaped wooden backboard of reddish brown, through which a panel of pink fabric shows. The two cartels stand side by side like slightly differing reflections, each with its two winding holes.

A cartel is a wall clock made to be looked at as much as consulted. The Musée Carnavalet holds one dated 1743 in gilt bronze, where scrolls, small flowers, acanthus leaves and rocaille motifs surround an enamel dial: the whole vocabulary is already in place. In the Napoleon III period many cartels took up these Louis XV models in gilt bronze. This pair, given to the early twentieth century and to the Louis XV and Transition taste, belongs to that long line of descent. Its maker is unknown, and the movement remains to be examined in hand.
