Commentary


Dimensions de la boîte : 55,5*31,5 mm.
L’intérieur est doré et présente un losange entre les deux emplacements guillochés.
L’exemplaire n’est pas signé mais le style de l’objet nous laisse à penser que ce porte louis fait partie de la série végétale élaborée par Jean-Baptiste Émile Dropsy.
Jean-Baptiste Émile Dropsy (1848-1923) est un graveur. Il entama son apprentissage de graveur sur métaux à Paris quai de Jemmapes auprès de la société Lemoine. Ce porte-louis décoré et gravé par Jean Baptiste Émile Dropsy permettait de ranger facilement plusieurs napoléons de 10 francs OR et de 20 francs OR à l’aide d’un système à ressorts.

Historical background


FRENCH THIRD REPUBLIC

(4/09/1870-10/07/1940)

Thiers was overthrown by the monarchists on May 24, 1873 and replaced by Marshal Mac Mahon. The mandate of the president is extended to seven years by the Assembly. The attempt to restore the Monarchy in the person of Henry V fails, because the latter refuses to give up the white flag. The constitutional laws passed on November 30, 1875 will not be modified until 1940; they bring relative political stability and rule out monarchical re-establishment. The legislative conflict of 1877, which opposed Jules Simon and the Duke of Broglie, turns to the advantage of the Republicans. The Universal Exhibition of 1878 takes place at the Trocadéro. The telephone made its appearance in Paris in 1879. Mac Mahon, in conflict with the Assembly, resigned ("submit or resign"). Jules Grévy was elected in his place. Gambetta becomes President of the Chamber of Deputies. The Prince Imperial, son of Napoleon III, is massacred by the Zulus in English uniform. July 14 became a national holiday in 1880..
