This figure is not mentioned in Kändler's work notes, or his Taxa and although it has been suggested that this figure was inspired by an anonymous engraving after Jean-Antoine Watteau, L'Indifférent,1 illustrated above, it would seem that Kändler has produced an entirely more dynamic and dramatic figure.

A similar example is in the Porzellansammlung, Dresden, see Ulrich Pietsch, Die figürliche Meissner Porzellanplastik von Gottlieb Kirchner und Johann Joachim Kändler. Bestandskatalog der Porzellansammlung Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, Munich, 2006, p. 63, no. 87. See also the example in the Pauls Collection, Erika Pauls-Eisenbeiss, German Porcelain of the 18th Century, London, 1972, Vol. I, pp. 280-281, together with details of comparable examples.
