Peter Paul Rubens, Flemish (1577-1640).

See The M.W. Zahorchak Collection, Christie's East, New York, 16 October 1984, lot 81 for a similar example illustrated on the catalogue front cover; also see E. Steingraber, Alte Pinakothek München, p. 455, no. 330 for an illustration of the original oil on canvas, circa 1616. The Nymphenburg factory (near Munich) was established in 1747 under the patronage of Prince-Elector Maximilian Joseph of Bavaria. Under the Royal attention of Crown Prince Ludwig (later Ludwig I), the painting department was elevated to the position of 'Art Institute.' During the early to mid-19th century, the factory worked almost exclusively on Royal commissions and on copying works from the Royal Pinakothek onto porcelain plaques. See A. Faÿ Hallé and B. Mundt, Porcelain of the Nineteenth Century, 1983, p. 139.
