These wall-lights are of the model delivered by Claude Galle in 1806 to the château de Fontainebleau, for the grand salon de reception de la secretairerie d’Etat de France (ill. J.P. Samoyault, Pendules et Bronzes d'ameublement entrés sous le Premier Empire, 1989, p. 141, fig.114). A further ‘paire de bras à flèches tête de Diane à quatre branches’ is recorded in Galle’s atelier in 1815.
