Tacere aut recte loqui, fan from a Marquis, 19th century
Brisé fan, painted
Under a Marquis's crown, an unidentified coat of arms.
The central design features a Polish shield shield Argent on a fess Gules between three shamrocks Sable, perhaps the Candon de Briailles family.
The Latin motto "Tacere aut recte loqui" (Shut up or speak the truth) could be that of the Moet de Romont family.
Condition : painting a little faded in places
Size :
Many thanks to Franck Monnier for his help with the Latin translation.
