Title: Porcelain, 1966-1967 [Go to resource]
Description: Dresden (Meissen) figures feature on an earlier caddy-shaped tin, 'Blue Dresden' (1953). Dresden/Meissen ware is strong and serviceable, the glaze is even and brilliant, the colors are sharp and bright, while the painting is for fineness and finish unsurpassed. All of these qualities can be seen on the examples shown here - as well as the frothiness and triviality of its subject-matter! This is version has squarer corners and a slightly different border on the lid from the other version produced at the same time.
