專家說明


R.G. Vater Collection no. 587 (paper collection label to the interior).

It still remains unclear as to whether decoration of this type was executed independently of the factory at Bayreuth by Johann Philipp Danhöffer (1712-90), or by Christian Daniel Busch, another painter at Bayreuth, as suggested by Siegfried Ducret, 'Johann Philipp Danhoffer oder Christian Daniel Busch?' in Keramos, No. 17, 1962, pp. 19-26. For a further discussion, see Barbara Beaucamp-Markowsky, Europäisches Porzellan, Kataloge des Kunstgewerbemuseums Köln, Vol. VI, pp. 89-93. Also see H. Syz, J.J. Miller and R. Rückert, Catalogue of The Hans Syz Collection, Washington, D.C., 1979, pp. 548-549 for a chinoiserie tankard painted with similar elongated figures.
