AN 18TH CENTURY MEISSEN GROUP OF THE INDISCREET HARLEQUIN By J.J Kandler, c. 1742Provenance : Winifred Williams Antiques, Eastbourne Sussex, 1967 Modelled as an Italian comedy group, with Columbine and Beltrame embraced in an intimate exchange.The male resting his foot on a reclining Harlequin who in turn is captured peeking up Columbine's skirt, each figure painted in brightly coloured costumes, the Harlequin wearing a jacket with scattered playing cards.Crossed Swords in underglaze blue, 16cm highIn 1731 Johann Joachaim Kandler was recruited to the Meissen factory as a modeller, working under the experienced hand of J. J Kirchner. During the first 21 months, Kandler worked together with him on projects of great difficulty.It was after the departure of Kirchner in 1733 that Kandler assumed the role of modeller-in-chief. Kandler was by now fully versed in the problems and difficulties associated with the manufacture of porcelain groups and large figures. Groups in particular, could present significant technical difficulties due to the risk involved with multiple figures being executed in one single firing process.Italian comedy, with its wide variety of risqué humour had been the subject of many prints and engravings, and these subjects were well extremely popular with the general public. Kandler’s sculpture of the 'Commedia dell'Arte' porcelain groups, 1740-45, represented some of the highest achievements produced at Meissen in the 18th century. The composition of 'The Indiscreet Harlequin', with reference to the pose of each figure, is believed to have been derived from a combination of engraved prints, namely the theatrical engravings of both Petrus Schenck and Gregorio Lambranzi.Kandler’s fascination with ‘Commedia dell'Arte’ is captured by his use of vibrant colour and the exaggerated expressions which portray the integral aspects of each character’s personality. The Harlequin, who is readily identifiable by his patchwork costume and menacing grin, is clearly shown as a figure of mischievous demeanour. Porcelain comedy groups became extremely popular amongst the highest tier of society, which up to this, had adorned their walls with flat black and white theatre engravings. The group, in contrast, was a colourful, three dimensional re-enactment of a comedy scene which could capture a moment of theatre in such a way that was impossible for the engraver.The popularity of the ‘Indiscreet Harlequin’ prompted a second phase of manufacture between 1742 and 1745. Kandler had set the stage for other porcelain factories to follow. During the subsequent years, porcelain centres such as Fürstenberg, Nymphenburg and Frankenthal attempted to re-produce the same group, whilst the Bow factory in London followed suit some ten years later.
