GUÉRET FRÈRES (cabinetmakers) and CARRIER-BELLEUSE (model by), Pair of "Pages" torch holders, model from the 1867 Universal Exhibition

These two walnut torch holders signed Guéret Frères were displayed at the cabinetmakers' stand at the 1867 Universal Exhibition. In Les curiosités de l'Exposition universelle de 1867, Hippolyte Gautier commented on these two Renaissance pages: ‘of a good attitude; made of walnut wood, but alive and palpitating under their fleur-de-lis dalmatic’. In fact, one of the pages is wearing a coat that rests elegantly on his forearms, allowing us to admire a suit covered in gilded fleurs-de-lis, indicating that he is surely in the service of the royal family. The second page, of which the Schaezlerpalais in Germany owns a copy, wears equally luxurious clothes, but his coat gives him more structure thanks to its puffed shoulders. This diversity of costume contributes to the movement and vitality of the ensemble that Gautier describes.
