LARGE PORCELAIN FIGURINE OF A BOLOGNESE DOG.

Meissen.
Date: 20th century.
Maker/Designer: Model J. J. Kaendler.
Technique: Porcelain, painted in colours.
Description: Dog in sitting posture, with broad collar with ornamental decoration. August III's
favourite animal is first mentioned in February 1735 as an animal figure of the Meissen
manufactory. The documents show that the Bolognese dog was originally intended for the
Japanese Palace. Like many of Kaendler's animal figures, the sculpture is characterised by
its strong naturalistic expression. With wavy fur, large lifelike eyes and a wide-open
mouth with carefully worked out details, the figure becomes a very special work.
Measurement: 34,5x22x38cm.
Mark: Shield mark, imressed. Model number 477 incised.


Provenance:
- Private collection Rhineland.

Literature:
- Sponsel, Jean Louis: Kabinettstücke der Meissner Porzellanmanufaktur von Johann Joachim Kaendler, Leipzig 1900, pp. 92-93.
- Pietsch, Ulrich: Meißner Porzellanplastik von Gottlieb Kirchner und Johann Joachim Kaendler, Munich 2006, cf. cat. rais. no. 275.
