Heraldic drawing, project for a covenant coat of arms representing the coats of arms of the de Laplanche de Fontenille and Linglier du Plaix families under a Chevalier helmet. Gouache on paper signed on the back by Agry rue de Castiglione, Paris.
Founded in 1825 and still in business today, Maison Agry is one of France's oldest companies specializing in heraldic engravings for the nobility and haute bourgeoisie. Today, it is still one of the last companies to offer a wide range of heraldic engravings on a variety of media and in a variety of forms: buttons, blazer buttons and horse jewelry, signet rings, creation of coats of arms, symbols, logotypes, letterheads, business cards, announcements, ex-libris, ornamental engraving on silverware, designs on parchment, wood and porcelain.
Our drawing is the preparatory model proposed by the Agry firm for the wedding of a wealthy patron from the nobility.
A fine example of the art of aristocratic living in the belle époque, circa 1900.
Perfect condition.
