The pair "Shepherd" and "Shepherdess"

Meissen (Meissen)


The pair
Description

On an irregular, naturally inspired pedestal adorned with plastic flowers and leaves, stands a shepherd playing a flute. In contrast, nearby is a shepherdess holding a bouquet of flowers in her right hand, her temporarily hitched-up apron filled with flowers. On the ground, a dog or a lying sheep can be seen. This is a polychrome piece highlighted with gold outlines. It may be the work of Johann Joachim Kändler, though this is unclear due to restoration or damage. The height is 17 cm. See Adams, "Meissen Portrait Figures," illustration on page 47. This is a pair of porcelain figures depicting a shepherd and a shepherdess. They have been slightly restored or damaged. They bear the Meissen crossed swords mark. Created around 1750.
