A similar model of wall-lights in the Grand Trianon in the Salon de Musique (or Salon des Officiers) is illustrated in Ledoux-Lebard, Le Grand Trianon, Paris, 1975, pgs. 89-90. Two other pairs of wall-lights of this model were delivered in 1810 by Thomire-Duterme et Cie. for the Chateau de Fontainbleau.
