The crouching figure on one side of the teabowl is derived from an engraving by Martin Engelbrecht, illustrated by Siegfried Ducret, Meissner Porzellan, bemalt in Augsburg, 1718 bis um 1750 (Brunswick, 1971), Vol. I, p. 107, fig. 45. The present teabowl is almost certainly from the same service as the saucer illustrated by Ducret as col. pl. XI, which he attributes to Wald.
