Panier

Myer Myers American
1770–76
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 750
Ce panier décoratif d’une grande rareté fut exécuté pour Samuel Cornell, riche commerçant des Indes occidentales (Antilles), et sa femme Susannah. Le couple vécut à New York et à New Bern, en Caroline du Nord. Nommé au conseil provincial de cet État, Cornell passa commande de divers objets d’exception à Myer Myers, orfèvre new-yorkais réputé. D’après l’inscription sous le panier, les Cornell en firent don à leur fille Hannah, qui avait épousé Herman LeRoy, le 19 octobre 1786. Les sections façonnées comme des dentelles, les bordures godronnées et l’anse à charnières ajourée, sont inspirées de l’argenterie londonienne « grand style ».
