Two Meissen Porcelain Chinese Nodding Pagode Figures
Located in London, GB
Called ‘pagode’ (or pagoda) figures, these Meissen Porcelain models are based on the sculptures of deities found in pagoda temples in the Far East. Meissen began to produce these kinds of porcelain figures in the early 18th century, prompted by the demand for the Far Eastern ‘pagodes’ being imported into Europe at this time.
The Meissen factory in Germany was founded in 1709 and was the first producer of true porcelain wares in Europe. The company’s main patron was Augustus II the Strong, the Elector of Saxony and King of Poland. Meissen was, and continues to be, famous for its tableware, vases, candelabra, animal sculptures and figures, like this pair, which were often graceful and light-hearted in character. These models feature the Meissen mark of the two blue crossed swords on their undersides.
These porcelain models take the form of a Chinese couple...

Art Nouveau Meissen Porcelain Group the Mermaid Catch by E. Herter Q195 Ca 1900
Located in Vienna, AT
Exquisite Large Meissen Art Nouveau Porcelain Group:
Exceptional, detailed depiction of an unclothed sturdy, fisherman with thick beard, freeing his catch, a beautiful mermaid adorned with pearl ribbons and aquatic plants with two intertwined fins, slowly sliding down his leg from the fishing net.
The group is supported from behind by a reed plant, as well as by the bundle of nets reaching to the ground below the nereid on which an octopus is cavorting, and is based on flat oval seashore base.
The original large bronze figural group 'A Rare Catch' from 1896 is still in Berlin, Germany, in the Viktoriapark at Kreuzberg, Kreuzbergstraße, at the foot of the waterfall.
Designer:
ERNST HERTER (1846 - 1917) was a German sculptor and medalist, trained at the Academy of Arts (Berlin) and later with Ferdinand August Fischer, Gustav Blaeser and Albert Wolff. From 1869 he ran his own workshop. After making a study trip to Italy in 1875, he settled in Berlin and, from 1900, in the then independent Charlottenburg. Herter was a member of the Berlin Art Academy and
held the degree of professor. Public monuments to Herter exist throughout Germany and the former German eastern territories, abroad, among others, Hermes for the Hermesvilla in Vienna.
The model by Ernst Herter was created in 1897.
