pot / jug / ewer
View through Europeana Collections
Covered jug, holy, hexagonal shape over hexagonal foot with panther handle, mascaron spout and arched lid with knob. At the lower and upper edges of the pot as well as at the cover underglaze blue foliage, which is arranged in a mirror pattern along the edges. The knob complemented incorrectly. The similar cannons of the Museo Civico in Turin and the Lichtenstein Column show a sitting figure. (Neuwirth, Waltraud) The model of this hexagonal coffee pot, painted here with few underglaze blue foliage elements, is one of the most fortunate and independent creations of the factory with its mascaron spout and the panther jumping from Arabesque. The variety of similar examples obtained demonstrates its popularity. The model of the handle goes back to Stella’s “Second Livre de Vases” (Paris 1667), but was similarly published by Joachim von Sandrart as a handle of a grotesque vase in his Teutschen Academie (second main part, Nuremberg 1679). (CLJ, Melinda and Paul Sullivan Foundation for Decorative Arts) Six-sided lidded pot with strong outloading belly and strong tapering upwards. The handle forms a panther growing out of a rolling mill, the casting a satir mask. Spacious painted with blue foliage Under Meißner influence. (Catalogue of Emperor Franz Josef Museum Troppau, 1903)
