Kändler took inspiration from an engraving by Pierre Filloeul (1696-after 1754) with the title “Le Château de Carte” after a painting by Jean-Baptiste Simeon Chardin (1699-1779). The model is referred in Kändler's Taxa for 1740-1744 as follows: '1 Figur. einen Monsieur, der einen Liebas-Brieff schreibt, vorstellend, mit der Feder in der Hand am Tische sizend' [One figure, a monsieur writing a love-letter, while he sits at a desk and holding a feather in his hand]. One example is now at the Ansbach Residenz (Inv. Nr. P 68) and is illustrated in Rainer Rückert, Meissener Porzellan, Munich, 1966, cat. 871.
