专家说明

This Chelsea figure is directly copied from the Meissen series for the Monkey Band, begun in August 1747 by J.J. Kändler and completed with P. Reinicke in February 1766. Initially Chelsea produced ten Monkey Musicians, which were based on Kändler's Affenkapelle. A similar Chelsea model of the drum bearer is at the Victoria & Albert Museum, London (museum no. 414:172/B-1885).
