See the footnote to the preceding lot. Examples of this model are illustrated by Len and Yvonne Adams, Meissen Portrait Figures, London, 1987, p. 138, and by Melitta Kunze-Köllensperger, Meissen, Collection Franz E. Burda, Augsburg, 1997, p. 140, no. 62, where the author mentions that this figure is often interpreted as a vodka seller.
