Large 19th century Meissen porcelain figure of Count Brühl's Tailor, on a goat modelled after J. J. Kändler, with finely decorated Clocksthes and the tools of his trade, mounted allover - blue crossed swords, impressed and painted marks to the underside, 43cm high. Count Heinrich Von Brühl' (1700 - 1763) was The Kingdom of Saxony's Minister of the Interior and a Director of the Meissen factory from 1733 - 1763. By tradition, the Count's socially ambitious tailor asked for an invitation to dine at Court, in order to put him in his place the Count requested Kändler to make aic figure of the tailor so he could be placed on the dining table rather than a guest at itCondition report: Some losses and restorationmensurate with age, including to the tailor's spectacles and scissors, to one of the goat's feet, one horn and ear, and some other extremities - displays well.
