Rainer: er Porzellan 1710-1810. exhibition cat Bavarian National Museum Munich, Munich 1966, cf p 191, cat.no.1060 Starting from the mid 18th century oriental peoples as small figures of porcelain were very famous It is not the faithful representation of the foreign nation which is most important, but the exaggeration of an imaginative masquerade Besides the highly demanded depictions of Chinese people after drawings of "Le délices de l'enface" (Jean Joseph Balechou after Francois Boucher, 1742), more and more other nations such as the Polish, Turkish, Indian or ,as in the present case, the Persians are of interest The drawings "Différentes nations du levant" by Charles de Ferriol dated 1714 served as a basis for these depictions Unfortunately there are no contemporary notes on the models of the sultan and the sultana The attribution of the models to Kaendlers and Reinickes is based on their similar models of elephant figures from 1741 and 1743
