Description
Français : Devenu grand maître de l'Ordre de Malte en 1799, l'empereur de Russie Paul Ier fait réaliser pour la chapelle des Chevaliers, élevée près du palais Vorontsov à Saint-Pétersbourg, ce trône en bois doré et sculpté destiné à magnifier sa nouvelle dignité. l'ouvrage est confié à Telesforo Bonaveri sur un dessin de l'architecte néo-classique Giacomo Quarenghi (1744-1817), chargé de la construction du sanctuaire. Deux rapaces aux ailes largement déployées servent d'accotoirs. Leurs serres reposent sur des patins aplatis.
English: Paul I, the emperor of Russia, who became the grand master of the Order of Malta in 1799, had this carved, gold-covered wooden throne made for the Knights' Chapel near Vorontsov Palace in Saint Petersburg to magnify his new dignity. Telesforo Bonaveri was commissioned to the work based on a design by the neo-classical architect Giacomo Quarenghi (1744-1817), who was in charge of building the chapel. A pair of hawks with outstretched wings serve as elbow-rest, their talons resting on flattened pads.
