Description |
Français : Cette bibliothèque est composée de trois sections : les deux bibliothèques latérales et le manteau de cheminée au centre. Le manteau de cheminée est principalement caractérisé par ces deux cariatides qui supportent une console, au-dessus de laquelle se trouve un miroir encadré de deux monstres marins. Au-dessus de ce miroir, se trouve une cartouche de laquelle sort le buste de Jacques Cartier. Le miroir est ensuite couronné d'un fronton brisé surmonté d'une urne sur base. De chaque côté de la cheminée se trouve les bibliothèques. Celles-ci sont constituées en premier lieu d'étagères fermées par des portes sur lesquelles des reliefs sculptés symbolisent, de gauche à droite, le Commerce, les Beaux-Arts, la Littérature et l'Histoire, et l'État. Au-dessus, se trouvent en second lieu les étagères vitrées qui sont chacune couronnées d'un fronton circulaire surmonté d'un globe terrestre. English: This bookcase is made up of three sections: the two side bookcases and the fireplace mantle in the center. The fireplace mantle is mainly characterized by these two caryatids which support a console, above which is a mirror framed by two sea monsters. Above this mirror is a cartridge from which the bust of Jacques Cartier emerges. The mirror is then crowned with a broken pediment surmounted by an urn on base. On either side of the fireplace are the bookcases. These are primarily made up of shelves closed by doors on which sculpted reliefs symbolize, from left to right, Commerce, Fine Arts, Literature and History, and the State. Above, there are secondly the glass shelves which are each crowned with a circular pediment surmounted by a terrestrial globe. |
