. Originaltitel
Auf einem unregelmäßigen flachen, mit plastischen Blüten und Blättern belegtem Sockel neben zwei Büschen und unter einem Baum mit je plastischem Blattbesatz und kleinem Vogel sitzendes, innig einander zugewandtes Liebespaar. Die Dame ein gelbes, mit Indianischen Blüten gemustertes Kleid tragend, der Herr bekleidet mit schwarzer Kniebundhose und roter, floral verzierter Weste. Zu ihren Füßen liegender Harlekin im Kostüm mit Spielkarten, einen Blick unter den Rock der Dame werfend. Polychrome Malerei mit Goldstaffage. Entw. Johann Joachim Kaendler, um 1740. Unw. rest./minim. best.; H. 27,5 cm.
Seltene, baumbestandene Ausführung, mit einem der Hofkultur des 18. Jhs. entsprechendem Sujet. August III. engagierte 1738 eine Gruppe von Komödianten aus Venedig, die u.a. die Commedia dell`arte aufführten. Bei einer Szene des Stücks ist das Liebespaar Columbine und Beltrame so innig vereint, dass der Harlekin ungestört einen Blick unter ihren Rock werfen kann.
