Culture: British. Dimensions: 8 1/4 × 8 1/4 × 4 3/4 in. (21 × 21 × 12 cm). Date: 15th century.The decoration of Gothic iron locks and keys was often elaborate and of the highest standard of workmanship. The motifs were frequently drawn from Gothic architecture, reproducing on a miniature scale complicated tracery patterns and even tiny statuettes. A number of these tiny locks were compound, with some of the mechanisms concealed from view, and required two or even three keys used in sequence to open them. It has been suggested that the greatly expanded use of locks on doors, or coffrets and other types of storage chests was a result of the increasing urbanization of life and the new emphasis on material wealth and private ownership which developed in the late Middle Ages.

Constructed from mahogany, it bears the monogram of Napoleons last consort near the top. Easels were regularly found in the painters studio and often pictured in artists self-portraits, such as the Adélaïde Labille-Guiards 1785 painting with two pupils, also in the museums collection (53.255.5). Less commonly considered as pieces of domestic furniture, this Empire period example suggests that painting was practiced as a pastime among women of elite rank even after the fall of the Old Regime. This easel is similar to a model executed by Jacob Desmalter and owned by Marie-Louise, located today at the Chteau de Fontainebleau..
