This scene is after an engraving after the painting by the Dutch painter Karel Dujardin (1626-1678) 'Landscape with Italian comedians and their audience (The charlatan)', 1657, Musée du Louvre, Paris, illustrated in Jennifer M. Kilian, The paintings of Karel Du Jardin 1626-1678, Catalogue Raisonnée, Amsterdam/Philadelphia, PA, 2005, p. 296, pl. 7.

It appears that depictions of the Commedia dell'Arte on Berlin porcelain are very rare.
