專家說明

The 'Grünes Watteau' service was one of the largest services produced for the Saxon Court in the 1740s. For a plate from the service and a listing of other examples in museums and which have appeared on the market, see D. Hoffmeister, Meissener Porzellan des 18. Jahrhunderts, Katalog der Sammlung Hoffmeister (Hamburg, 1999), Vol. I, pp. 310-111, no. 199. A similar service was manufactured for the Russian court, which is now in the Hermitage, St. Petersburg.
