專家說明

The Meissen ‘Cris de Paris’ series of street-vendors was modelled by P. Reinicke and overseen by J.J. Kändler after a series of drawings produced by Christophe Hüet in 1753 (see page 64 for an illustration of this drawing). Work began in 1753-4 and it became the most extensive series made at the Meissen manufactory. For an example of this figure see Martin Eberle, Cris de Paris Meissener Porzellanfiguren des 18. Jahrhunderts, Leipzig, 2001, p. 86, no. 29.
