Small fan printed on paper in Louis the Sixteenth style.
In the centre, there is a family scene in which the King seems to be speaking to everyone. On the sides, there are two medallion portraits of Luis XVI and Marie Antoinette.
Draperies and neoclassical motifs complete the leaf.
This fan is reminiscent of publicity for the "Hotel Crillon" even though its bamboo sticks have only slightly painted decoration, they are imported from the East and are less articulated.
