Referring to a very short period, the Charles X (1824-1830) style designation is nonetheless significant because it allows us to detect some specific elements of the taste of the time. It can be considered the last phase of the Revival, in which uses the demands of the ruling class for a newly discovered taste for gothic. Charles X style сharacterized by wavy lines, which oppose the more squared ones of the Empire style, it mainly gilded and patinated bronze is used, with small external metal appliques.
Daphnis (Δάφνις), in Greek mythology, the legendary inventor of bucolic poetry, a Sicilian shepherd (Phrygian singer), who was credited with divine origin. Daphnis was considered the son of Hermes and one of the nymphs who abandoned the child in the valley of the Heraic Mountains (island of Sicily) in a laurel grove. Daphnis was raised by nymphs, and his half-brother Pan (the god of shepherds and flocks, with the appearance of a satyr) taught him to play the flute and sing shepherd's songs.
