Front: Fête galante, with twelve people on a pavement with water in the foreground. On the left, two boys with baskets of grapes and fruit are serving a table; two women are sitting in the foreground, one with her arm on a cushion, the other courted by a kneeling young man. In the centre there is a sitting man and men playing a cello and a hurdy-gurdy. On the right, a drunken young man is courting a woman with a bottle in his right hand; between them in the background, a couple is sitting on the edge of the pedestal. In the background a naked statue standing on one leg with a drape over his hand, a fountain and a tree can all be distinguished. In the right corner, there is an urn on a pedestal with a satyr mask spouting water; in front of the sitting woman on the left there is an open chest with ribbons and to her left a statue of a bird is spouting water from its beak. The top is bordered with swags in different colours and decorated with gold. The top edging is of gold foil; the lower edging is painted in gold. Back: On a white background and a green floor with three trees, the right scene from the front leaf with the drunken man courting a woman is copied. The top border is decorated with similar swags. Sticks: in the centre a cartouche showing a couple, a winged child with a tail and a lion flanked by two sitting eagles is worked. On the right, the stick between the lion and the eagle is missing. The first four sticks on either side form cartouches, a bowl surrounded by flowers and two birds, but on the left side the second stick is missing; on top of each stick there is a shell. The reverse of the sticks is decorated in the same way. Guards: both guards are decorated in the same way: Panels of mother of pearl with lacquer insertions and a little of mother-of-pearl near the top reference exhibition-1001 adlib-exhibition-1001 00cfc974-ecef-3e43-8b13-3095b37c62bc Treasures for the Nation, Conserving our Heritage reference exhibition-3316 adlib-exhibition-3316 b6e1947d-f90e-362d-ab76-525f83ed208b Seeing Sound: Music, Imagery and Inspiration M.28-1985 1 accession number M.28-1985 117614 priref 117614 1985 1985 1985 Messel-Rosse Collection old catalogue number DR 22/275 uri https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/117614 https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/117614 reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Purchased with a grant from the National Heritage Memorial Fund and a gift from the Friends of the Fitzwilliam. reference agent-172856 adlib-agent-172856 71f39a0b-c347-3d6b-9888-73f17b5c827f Countess of Rosse, Anne 1985 1985 1985-01-28 bought Entry date: 1985-01-28 1720 1720 1720 circa 1720 1730 1 1730 1730 1730 maker reference agent-149652 adlib-agent-149652 0d4f90dc-b166-3d4b-b0db-25f4118b6e98 Unknown reference term-121036 adlib-term-121036 d94c6987-b658-37d7-a4c1-f5da804d2e40 18th Century, second quarter reference term-106629 adlib-term-106629 e1fb1a11-426b-3006-bf59-4126d48e87ca literal Italy Italy country Italy reference term-110712 adlib-term-110712 62af496a-308b-35b5-9f83-c7a0f36fba19 folding fan history note Colonel Leonard C.
