Lot Essay
See Kurt Röder, das Höchster Porzellan, Mainz, 1925, pl. 6, no 30 for the model and Horst Reber, Die Kurmainzische Porzellan- manufaktur Höchst, Band II Fayencen, Munich 1986 for illustrated models of parrots. Another model can be seen in The Emma Budge Collection, Hamburg 1937, pl. 133, fig. 848.
For a modified faience version of the parrot with a higher slightly more elaborate base and longer tail feathers, modelled by Johann Gottfried Becker and painted by Johannes Zechinger, see Christie's London, 11 December 2000, lot 240. Compare also the models from The Pflueger Collection, see Hugo Morley-Fletcher, The Pflueger Collection, Vol. II, page 151.
