See Siegfried Ducret, ibid. (Brunswick, 1971), Vol I., figs. 196-7 where the author points out that the Chinoiseries are derived from an engraving by J. Höroldt, which also served as the Vorbild for the blue-ground AR beaker vase, signed by Höroldt, still in Dresden, see Handt and Rakebrandt, Meissener Porzellan des 18 Jahrhunderts (Dresden, 1956), fig. 36.
