The two figures of the Fates on the cup are taken from a preparatory drawing by Gustav Friedrich Taubert (see Erich Köllmann and Margarete Jarchow, op. cit. (Munich 1987), Vol. I, p. 198. The same subject, but differently treated, occurs on a cup and saucer in Erich Köllmann op. cit. (Berlin, 1966), Vol. II, fig. 178 b.
