Staircase Model (France)
This is a staircase model. It is dated mid–late 19th century and we acquired it in 2007. Its medium is oak. It is a part of the Product Design and Decorative Arts department.
This double-revolution staircase model is similar to one described as being “in Renaissance style for a store,” in plate 17 of a folio by E. Delbrel, published in Paris in the 1880s. The upper level is self-supporting and the railings’ balusters are turned.
This object was featured in our Object of the Week series in a post titled Descending the Stairs in a Grand Manner.
