Original Description:
Antique Gigantic Meissen Statue 19” Masterwork
This Meissen statue is one of the largest pieces I have come across, this is absolutely a show off piece of Meissen porcelain!!
The entire statue is covered all over in meticulously detailed fine painting
As you probably know no to mice and porcelain figures have the same type of painting for the clothing but this one is absolutely astonishing with the level of detail and incredible level of fine hand painting.
The masterful ...skill on the vest alone must have taken countless hours to paint in that extreme detail.
The composition of his posture it is absolutely elegant and anatomically accurate capturing movement. The statue has a slight belly representing opulence and wealth for this time.
His face is finally crafted with soft features and accented with Rosie cheeks and a powder wig
The basket is superbly done with a variation of flowers that are very colorful and each one is hand placed to add depth and 3-D relief
This entire piece is covered from head to tell and vibrant colors and I personally love the blue coloring of the floral jacket all tied together nicely with an accent of gold buttons!
I can go on and on about the level of detail put into this piece that Meissen porcelain is so famous for.
This statue is absolutely massive towering at an impressive 19 inches tall and about 8 inches wide at the widest point. Please look at the last photo for a size comparison with the other figures that are not included within this auction, for size reference only.
The statue is very heavy, A solid signature piece from Meissen
This statue will require a large box to ensure a safe delivery.
There are many issues to this beautiful figure, The hand / arm has been previously broken off and reattached, and I can see some parts that have been rebuilt. I believe at one point on the base there was some floral pattern or something that is no longer there, chips at the flowers in the basket and on the tree branch. Some tiny age cracks on the pedestal. And a tight age crack at the bottom of the base near the Meissen mark, The base is hollow and a crack spans across from the base mount holes.
Even though all of the above issues exist, it still does not detract from the impressive size or a magnificent beauty of this wonderful and exclusive piece.
All of the issues I describe must be carefully look for and cannot be noticed from a distance that display.
Keep in mind this piece dates from around 1840-1850. And I consider the condition fair for Its age
This piece is first quality marked with blue Meissen crossed swords includes the artists signature.
There was a very limited number of these made! They had to be special ordered in very small numbers for exclusive clients.
The list price for this piece categorized as a master work from the Meissen workshop cost over €22, 000 or about $24, 500.
This piece is rumored to take three months from beginning to end to manufacture and paint. And also was never guaranteed to come first quality based on the size detail and painting!and again this piece is not mint, not new, not perfect please pay careful attention to all the photos and a description, and if you require more information or photos please let me know prior to bidding.
