For information about Nicola Morelli, please see the footnote to the following lot. It should be noted that the citrine cameos are the only examples so far recorded by Morelli in this material.

Paul Victor Lebas (1820-circa 1876) was a prominent mid-nineteenth century cameo carver who had trained first as an engraver and then under the scuptor Louis-Denis Caillouette. He worked for the Imperial family showing a cameo profile of the Empress at the Salon of 1853; an angelic cameo of the Prince Imperial, circa 1865, is now in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum (Ac. No. 40.20.16). His most famous work, however is a commesso portrait of the young Queen Victoria, executed after a portrait by Thomas Sully of 1839 and made in conjunction with Félix Dafrique (V & A , M. 340-1977)
