This fan (signed on the reverse) was decorated around 1775 by Johann Caspar Eder – a chancery clerk and privy counselor of the fürstbischofliche Geheimkanzlei of Bamberg. In 2019, it was exhibited in the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek München and was published in the corresponding catalogue “Gott, die Welt und Bayern. 100 Kostbarkeiten aus den Regionalen Staatlichen Bibliotheken Bayerns” (2018), S. 200, cat. no. 76. The design includes a section after L'Air from a set of Elements by Jean Pillement (1719-1808). On the reverse, two putti holding a garland sit on a cloud. reference term-106451 adlib-term-106451 9cdfd62c-ee07-3884-ae08-c797aad08631 18th Century, Mid reference term-15538 adlib-term-15538 e4001da7-ed48-3271-a6fb-c7f54095a1ad Louis XV reference media-99823020 portfolio portfolio-media-99823020 c2b75449-1bfa-3845-99e0-1b35919e5345 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/664/158/large_M_303_1985_1_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 683 width pixels 1024 1552987469000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/664/158/mid_M_303_1985_1_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 334 width pixels 500 1552987469000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/664/158/M_303_1985_1_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 2456 width pixels 3682 1552987469000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/664/158/preview_M_303_1985_1_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 167 width pixels 250 1552987469000 1 image 0 media image reference media-3859830814 portfolio portfolio-media-3859830814 4340bde9-238e-3328-8e69-d3ca22fba333 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/664/159/large_M_303_1985_2_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 682 width pixels 1024 1565692410000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/664/159/mid_M_303_1985_2_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 333 width pixels 500 1565692410000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/664/159/M_303_1985_2_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 2455 width pixels 3685 1565692410000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/664/159/preview_M_303_1985_2_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 167 width pixels 250 1565692410000 1 image 1 media image reference term-110712 adlib-term-110712 62af496a-308b-35b5-9f83-c7a0f36fba19 folding fan history note Colonel Leonard C.
