Explore the artistry of Johann Friedrich Eberlein (1695-1749), a Dresden-born porcelain artist renowned for exquisite Meissen creations like candelabras & salt cellars. Discover his legacy!
A very decorative figure of black woman with a basket was created in the oldest European porcelain workshop in Meissen, near Dresden. This complicated composition, using a difficult porcelain technique, was carried out with a real artistry, by creating the figurine of a woman from the then very exotic Africa. The figurine belongs to the very fashionable 18th century sculptures in porcelain, which enriched the table setting.
