As the Baroque gave way to the Rococo in 18th century Europe, a playful sensibility emerged in the arts. This extended to porcelain, as seen in this circa 1750 figurine from England's pioneering Chelsea Porcelain manufactory. Founded around 1743, Chelsea Porcelain stood apart for its whimsical figural works, often drawing inspiration from continental tastemakers like Meissen and Sèvres.
This hand-painted sculpture depicts a tailor astride a goat, with a kid tucked in a basket. The subject's finely rendered clothing and tools of the trade reference his livelihood, while the goat and pastoral motifs nod to Rococo tastes. Molded and painted using techniques adapted from Chelsea's european counterparts, the soft coloration and fluid forms showcase the manufactory's technical virtuosity. Beneath, the distinctive red anchor emblem marks this as their workmanship.
At justsix inches tall, this glazed porcelain tableau combines wit and skill, encapsulating Chelsea Porcelain's place in England's 18th century ceramic arts scene.

- Count Bruhl's Tailor, 19th C. Bisque Porcelain Goat And Rider By Vion Et BauryLocated in Free Union, VAA very finely modeled French bisque porcelain figural group, incorporating a mix of glazed and natural bisque porcelain. Dating to the late 19th century, this is an excellent example of the work produced by modeler Charles Baury who worked in Paris for the firm of Jean Giles (founded in 1837) until Baury took over the manufactory in 1868 and a few years later moved it to Choisey-le-Roi. A periwinkle embossed maker’s seal cipher “VB” for Vion et Baury is found on the underside. The figures and costume are inspired by the whimsy, beauty and absurdity frequently found in earlier 18th and 19th century Meissen porcelain compositions, and the historical figure, Heinrich, Count von Brühl...Category
