Johann Joachim Kaendler (1706–1775) is regarded as one of the most prominent personalities in the 313-year history of the Meissen porcelain manufactory. His first three workshop employees, Johann Friedrich Eberlein (1696–1749), Johann Gottlieb Ehder (1716/7–1750), and Peter Reinicke (1711–1768), contributed significantly to the appearance of Meissen porcelain in the first half of the eighteenth century. The output of the workshop is the focus of the publication, which offers the first complete transcription of the work reports of the three modelers. A catalogue on some 995 models has thus emerged, whose individual entries act as a history of each model’s creation. This catalogue makes it possible to view the porcelain figures in their chronological sequence of production, to comprehend their relationships, and to identify stylistic transformations.weiterlesen
