Der in Hamburg und Dresden bei Ernst Gottfried Vivié bzw. Ernst Hähnel ausgebildete Bildhauer Emmerich Andresen (1843 - 1902) wurde 1886 zum Vorsteher der Gestaltungsabteilung der Meissener Porzellanmanufaktur berufen. Seine allegorischen Porzellanfiguren sind von einem klassisch-akademischen Stil geprägt, die stiltypische Merkmale der Großplastik aufweisen.
