Lot Essay

For a bowl with related decoration (the exterior with European scenes), see Ulrich Pietsch, Frühes Meissner Porzellan, Sammlung Carabelli Catalogue, Munich, 2000, pp. 156-157, no. 69, where he attributes the exterior scenes (which are probably by the same hand as the present lot) to Johann George Heintze.
