Lot 2403 | Seltene Meissen Figur "Neptun auf Muschel"
Seltene Meissen Figur "Neptun auf Muschel"
Seltene Meissen Figur "Neptun auf Muschel" Über rechteckiger Plinte, auf einer geriffelten Muschel stehender, schilfbekränzter, langbärtiger Meeresgott Neptun (griech. Poseidon) mit weißem, vom Wind aufgeplustertem Tuch, durch purpurfarbener Band gegürtet. Sparsam akzentuierte, polychrome Malerei mit Goldkonturierung. Entw. Johann Joachim Kaendler und sJohann Friedrich Eberlein. Unw. rest.; Schwertermarke. H. 21,5 cm.
Der thematische Zusammenhang zum bedeutenden, von J. J. Kaendler und J. F. Eberlein um 1739/1742 entworfenen, Schwanenservice für Graf Heinrich von Brühl ist evident. Denkbar wäre diese Figur als Bekrönung für einen großen Tafelaufsatz. Ob es sich hierbei um eine Figur aus dem berühmten Service des Ministers handelt, ist nicht nachweisbar, die Zuschreibung an Eberlein/Kaendler aber durchaus zulässig. Zudem erwähnt Karl Berling (Festschrift, 1910) eine, 1741 von Eberlein modellierte Neptunfigur mit Muschel (Zitat "Neptune with sea-shell") für einen Baron von Stecken. Es handelt bei der vorliegenden Figur wohl um ein, zeitnah zum Brühl'schen Schwanenservice entworfenes Modell, welches sich inhaltlich als Tafeldekoration ausgezeichnet einfügt.
Vgl. Berling, Festschrift, 1910, S. 42 (ohne Abb.).
