说明:The present gilt-bronze dragon was most likely produced as an ornamental mount for a piece of sumptuous furniture or as an element of a larger bronze sculpture or object.
The present example, with its dynamic silhouette and detailed chasing, may well have adorned the base of a cartel clock. A closely related dragon is shown supporting such a timepiece in a drawing dating to the 1720s.1
