拍品专文

The Meissen manufactory produced various models of squirrels in the eighteenth century, with the present model probably introduced around 1749. According to Kändler's Taxa, he first modeled a pair of squirrels in August 1732: 'Zwei Eichhörnigen' (two squirrels) and afterwards in September 1733, 'Ein kleines Eichhörngen' (a small squirrel). An example of this model, in the Collection of Sir Gawaine & Lady Baillie, was sold at Sotheby's, London, 1 May 2013, lot 76, and another by Christie's, London, 12 November 2020, lot 109.
