Specialist Notes

The Saxon-style decoration is typical of the Doccia manufactory between 1755 and 1770. This decoration is particularly linked to the production of the painter Angelo Fiaschi active in Doccia from 1738 to 1775 as well as the painter Simone Villoresi, active in the manufactory between 1759 and 1778. Over the years the decoration remained similar in the scroll-like formula of scrolls and racemes, but the figures of Asian dignitaries, derived from Meissen iconographies, were abandoned to make way in the last quarter of the eighteenth century for scenes of pastoral life drawn from the world of Arcadia and mythology. 
For comparison see: G. Morazzoni, Le porcellane italiane, Milan, 1960, table 207 a
