拍品专文

The present two models are from a series of sixteen groups entitled Les Enfants Falconet, première grandeur, primarily based on images by François Boucher and conceived by Falconet starting in 1757. Les Buveurs was first modeled in 1757, La Marchande in 1759 as its pendant. See M.-N. Pinot de Villechenon, Falconet à Sèvres 1757-1766 ou l'art de plaire, Paris, 2001, pp. 115-6 and 123-4, cat. nos. 50 & 51. Also see X. Salmon, Madame de Pompadour et les arts, Paris, 2002, pp. 493-4, no. 210, for an example of Les Buveurs, included in the exhibition as Madame de Pompadour was known to own the model.
