介绍（中）	具有对称设计的波峰栏杆是在被称为摄政的洛可可风格的早期阶段执行的，该阶段包括 1715-1723 年期间，当时奥尔良公爵菲利普二世担任年轻的路易十五的摄政王。摄政风格是对路易十四时期宫廷的巴洛克式宏伟和形式的反应，并过渡到更加轻浮和亲密的敏感性，在大约 1730 年发展成为成熟的洛可可式，其偏爱不对称。这根栏杆上的雕刻装饰品由刻有玫瑰花结的格子组成，两侧是不对称的 C 形和 S 形卷轴、贝壳以及花卉装饰，与弗朗索瓦·鲁米耶（François Roumier）的设计相似，该设计发表在他的 1724 年 Livre de plusieurs 硬币 de Bordures 中。作为负责建造和维护法国皇宫的机构Bâtiments du Roi雇用的装饰雕刻师，Roumier在1720年代负责凡尔赛宫的大部分雕刻室内装饰。象征着爱的有翅膀的弓箭和箭袋正在睡觉。这表明，这个雕刻精美的波峰栏杆曾经是其中一部分的长椅被放置在私人卧室或更私密的较小房间之一中，随着十八世纪对舒适和隐私的日益渴望，变得越来越重要。
介绍（英）	The crest rail with its symmetric design was executed during the early stage of the Rococo style known as Régence which encompassed the period of 1715-1723, when Philippe II, duc d’Orléans, served as regent to the young Louis XV. The Régence style was a reaction against the Baroque grandeur and formality of the court under Louis XIV and transitioned to a more frivolous and intimate sensibility developing into the full-blown Rococo with its penchant for asymmetry by circa 1730. The carved ornament on this railing, consisting of trelliswork inscribed by rosettes, flanked by asymmetrical C and S-shaped scrolls, shells, as well as floral decoration, bears resemblance to a design by François Roumier, published in his Livre de plusieurs coins de Bordures of 1724. As a decorative carver employed by the Bâtiments du Roi, the agency in charge of the construction and maintenance of the various French royal palaces, Roumier was during the 1720s responsible for much of the carved interior decoration at the Château de Versailles. Symbolizing love, the winged putti with their bow and quiver, are sleeping. This suggests that the settee of which this exquisitely carved crest rail was once part, was placed either in a private bedroom or in one of the more intimate smaller rooms which, with the increasing desire for comfort and privacy during the eighteenth century, became more and more important.
