FRANCE, mid/late 19th century - Lot 179
FRANCE, mid/late 19th century Model of the imperial coat of arms of the carriages of Napoleon III On a painted panel, large polychrome imperial coat of arms, framed, with brass plate "Armoiries des carrosses de la cour de Napoléon III, collection Bail ainé", paper label on back with handwritten note "Modèle des armoiries impériales figurant sur les carrosses de la cour de Napoléon III", with partly torn address rue Kléber, Paris. H. 80 cm - L. 79 cm ND Bail Ainé was a mid-19th-century carriage maker who won awards under the Second Empire, and took part in several exhibitions of French means of transport, notably at international exhibitions.
