專家說明

See Friedrich H. Hofmann, Frankenthaler Porzellan (Munich, 1911), Vol. I, pl. 65, nos. 281 and 282 for comparable figures, which he attributes to Johann Friedrich Lück. For a discussion of J.F. Lück, see W.B. Honey, European Ceramic Art (London, 1952), p. 247, where he argues that this attribution is doubtful. Another pair of these figures, formerly in the Max Hoffmann Collection, were sold in these Rooms on 21st November 2005, lot 159.
