EXEPTIONAL SERIES OF TWELVE PORCELAIN PLATES WITH ROMANTIC VIEWS OF THE RHINE.

KPM. Berlin.

Date: 1837-1844.
Technique: Porcelain, painted in colours and gold. Each mounted in a matching frame.
Description: Each with a smooth, slightly grooved flag and riser. Gold-etched ornamental band on the banner, each with militaria in ovals on a purple ground. The mirror shows changing views of the Rhine with large panoramas in atmospheric light and clouds.

The views show different angles of the Ehrenbreitstein fortress and the mouth of the Moselle at the 'German corner' near Koblenz. The plate motifs can therefore be roughly titled as:
- View of Ehrenbreitstein Fortress with floating bridge - destroyed in the war. Near today's Pfaffendorf Bridge.
- Ehrenbreitstein Fortress seen from the riverbank near Neuendorf.
- Ehrenbreitstein & Koblenz with a view of St Castor's Basilica.
- View of the German Corner from a hill. The valley where the Moselle flows into the Rhine at Koblenz.
- View of the German Corner near Koblenz from Niederberg.
- View of Ehrenbreitstein with the Basilica of St Castor in the foreground.
- View of Koblenz from the west with Ehrenbreitstein Fortress in the background.
- View of Ehrenbreitstein from the western bank of the Rhine.
- View from the bank directly to the Balduin Bridge near Koblenz.
- View of Koblenz with Balduin Bridge from Ehrenbreitstein Fortress.
- View of the Balduin Bridge near Koblenz from a distance.
- View of Ehrenbreitstein from the Rhine with a view of the former village near Niederwerth.
Measurement: The plates each ø 24.5cm. Frame each 35.5x34x7cm.
Mark: Sceptre mark with KPM (1837-1844), red imperial orb with KPM (from 1832), each with the same painter's mark in blue on glaze.
One of the plates heavily restored.
