About the Item

Diana the Hunteress and her Nymphs Important sculptural group in white enamelled porcelain representing the Goddess Diana the Hunteress and her Nymphs, with her pack of dogs Resting on an ormolu gilded and chiselled terrace. Marked with N crowned underneath Manufacture de Niderviller Circa 1860 According to the paintings by Pierre-Paul Rubens and Jan I Brueghel, « Diane and her Nymphs preparing for the Hunt» and the pendant, «Diana’s resting » , both kept at the Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature in Paris (Hunting and Nature Museum) Dimensions Group H 59 x L 58 x P 33 cm Total Height 70 cm Ormolu base L 62 x P 45 cm Created in 1735, the pottery of Niderviller owes its fame to its statuettes. Under the direction of J-L Beyerlé, it is oriented towards this type of products. These are true masterpieces, largely inspired by sculpture, which then come out of the facto-ries of Niderviller. The success is such that they receive many awards, as well as various prizes. They even end up appearing in a “Book of forms” at the beginning of the 19th century. Although the porcelain of Niderviller did not have the expected success, its earthenware, on the other hand, has passed through the ages. Whether for decoration or table service, the presentation of this French pottery is now international
