介绍（中）	音乐是玛丽·安托瓦内特一生的消遣之一。她年轻时在维也纳学习表演和唱歌，歌剧作曲家克里斯托弗·威利博尔德·格鲁克（1714-1787）是她的导师。她在法国宫廷里每天用音乐自娱自乐几个小时，是歌剧的爱好者。女王对音乐的享受体现在这些壁灯的设计中，这些壁灯可能是在1787年或次年订购的，供她在圣克劳德城堡使用。尽管还没有确定它们的确切日期或作者，但在1789年制定的夏季城堡详细库存描述中，它们很容易在女王内阁的家具中被识别出来烤饼的背板悬挂在一条系在蝴蝶结上的镀金青铜缎带上，形状像一把七弦琴，上面挂着一个乐器奖杯。除了音乐，装饰还暗指巴克斯，这位罗马葡萄酒和醉酒狂欢之神，也是葡萄栽培的赞助人，经常出现在伴随着音乐跳舞的萨蒂尔人的陪伴下。其中两只手臂的形状像聚宝盆，上面有藤蔓叶子和葡萄的卷轴和花环，蜡烛盘上堆满了水果。萨提尔面具和thyrsus，上面是松果，这是巴克斯的一种特征，加入了乐器奖杯。
介绍（英）	Music was one of Marie-Antoinette’s lifelong diversions. She was taught to perform and sing when young in Vienna, where the opera composer Christoph Willibald Gluck (1714–1787) was her tutor. She amused herself with music several hours a day at the French court and was a devotee of the opera. The queen’s enjoyment of music is reflected in the design of these wall lights, which were ordered probably in 1787 or the following year for her use at the Château de Saint-Cloud. Although no precise date or authorship have been established for them, they can easily be recognized among the furnishings listed as in the queen’s Cabinet Intérieur in the detailed inventory description of the summer castle drawn up in 1789. Suspended from a gilt-bronze ribbon tied in a bowknot, the back plate of the sconces is shaped like a lyre with a pendant trophy of musical instruments. In addition to music, the decoration also alludes to Bacchus, the Roman deity of wine and drunken revelry who was also patron of viticulture, and who is frequently shown in the company of satyrs dancing to music. Two of the arms are shaped as cornucopias with scrolls and garlands of vine leaves and grapes, their candle dishes piled up with fruit. A satyr mask and thyrsus, the staff topped by a pinecone, an attribute of Bacchus, join the trophy of musical instruments.
