The Russian Ballet series was introduced at the Meissen Manufactory in early January and February of 1912. See J. Rafael,Paul Scheurich 1883-1945 Porzellane für die Meissener Manufaktur Meissener Manuskripte, Sonderband VIII, Meissen, 1996, p. 21-31, ill. 1.2, 3/4.4 and 5.3 for similar examples and a discourse on the ballet including watercolors, costume designs and pl. 1.1 a period photograph of Adolf Bolm as Pierrot (1912).
This lot and the following represents four of the five figures modeled by Scheurich on characters in the ballet Karneval created by Serge Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, choreographed by Mikhail Fokine, with music by Robert Schumann. Staged in Berlin in 1910, 1912 and 1914 as a one-act ballet at the Theatre des Westerns, the performance featured new sets and costumes by Leon Bakst. Carnival quickly became a beloved favorite resulting in its choice for recreation by Scheurich at Meissen.
