Italy, 18th century
Steel and copper
Length : 19,5 ; H. : 10 cm
Flat-bodied flintlock gun chiselled with historical scenes from Genesis.
On the left side of the plate, Adam is about to fall, with his knee bent, next to the serpent of the Temptation. In the center of the plate, at the level of the basin, Eve is engraved in front, her hands hiding her chest, in a vegetal background. On the dog Adam is alone with Nahash.
The screw of the dog, also called the nut, is hidden under an almost lunar face, round and in relief. The basin is also chiseled with a winged face, the battery is perforated with plant motifs and finely decorated with foliage. The cover-bassinet is animated by an anthropomorphic head finished in fire.
On the reverse, under the spring, a stamp is punched with the initials CP and a horse.
