Seltene Meissen Komödiantenfigur "Pulcinella"
aus der Italienischen Komödie
Auf einem mit Blättern und Blüte belegtem Ovalsockel an einem Baumstumpf stehender Komödiant in expressiver Tanzhaltung. Pulcinella trägt eine Jacke mit Streifen- und Spielkartenmuster aus dem rückwärtig sein markanter Buckel hervorragt, eine schlichte Hose und einen mit Schleife geschmücktem Spitzhut. Seine rechte Hand erhoben, die Linke mit der Pritsche zu Boden gesenkt. Polychrome Malerei mit Goldstaffage. Entw. Johann Joachim Kaendler und Peter Reinicke, um 1742 - 1744. Minim. rest.; Schwertermarke. H. 16 cm.
Eine etwa zeitgleich von Johann Adolph II., Herzog von Weißenfels, einem Cousin August III., in Auftrag gegebene Serie der Italienischen Komödie umfasst etwa 15 Figuren. Die zwischen 1743 und 1745 entstandenen Figuren sind von Peter Reinicke unter der Leitung des Modellmeisters J. J. Kaendler und größtenteils nach Stichvorlagen von François Joullain für Luigi Riccobonis "Histoire du Théatre Italien" (Paris 1728) gefertigt worden. Für diese Figur des Pulcinella werden verschiedene graphische Vorlagen in Erwägung gezogen. Zum einen ein Kupferstich nach dem Gemälde "Départ de Comédiens" von Watteau. Zum anderen zwei Stiche unbekannter Künstler, die eine Maskerade bzw. ein Komödiantenfest zeigen.
