专家说明

A figure of St. John, similar to the right hand figure of the present lot, is illustrated by R. Rückert, Meissener Porzellan, Munich, 1966, pl. 237, no. 974, where the author cites J.F. Eberlein's work records of September 1740 "Eine Fiur, die Mutter Gottes unter dem Creutze vorstellend. Den heil. Joannes darzu." For related models which the authors attribute to J.J. Kändler, see L. & Y. Adams, Meissen Portrait Figures, London, 1987, p. 59.
