    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. Brief Description of Item[from the vendor’s description] A Meissen Böttger stoneware figure of ‘Pulcinell’, from the Commedia dell’arte, partly polished and with original colouring. 16.4cm high, 85.cm wide, 8.2cm deep. Circa 1710-13 ‘Some surface wear to the colours, slight crack in upper right arm’. 2. Context Provenance: English private collection [to be confirmed by the Arts Council]. Exhibition History: n/a? Bibliography/ literature: [on the handful of related items, as this piece seems to be a new discovery] Willi Goder, Klaus Hoffmann [et al.].Johann Friedrich Böttger : die Erfindung des Europäischen Porzellans /Stuttgart, , 1982, p.251. The assessor has used the French edition of 1984 Meredith Chilton, Harlequin Unmasked; The commedia dell’arte and porcelain sculpture, Yale University Press, 2001, p.163 3. Waverley Criteria This figure meets both Waverley Criterion 2 and 3. In its contraposto pose and superior modelling [probably by a German court sculptor], the figure has an excellent claim to be considered of outstanding aesthetic importance, thus meeting the Waverley 2 criterion. It is from a factory which is regarded as one of the leading 18th century ceramic factories, not least because it has the reputation of being the first factory in Europe to make true hard –paste porcelain like the Chinese. There are of course Meissen figures in British collections, but almost invariably of the later enamelled porcelain body, and not of this early experimental ‘stoneware’ body. In subject matter it is the very first of what became a recognized genre: the commedia dell’ arte figure, leading to the porcelain figures of Harlequin, Columbine, Pantaloon etc of the mid to later 18th century , thus fulfilling the criterion set out in Waverley 3.

    BÖTTGER STONEWARE: ited at the Leipzig Fair along with the newly developed white porcelain. WHAT SCIENCE CAN TELL US Meissen appears to have been primarily a stoneware factory from 1710-1712.3 Various forms with diverse decoration were made and sold, some following the Christina H. Nelson Chinese red stoneware models from Yixing and some Curator of European and American Decorative Arts following European metalwork prototypes. The secret The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art of red stoneware manufacture was sought by rival princes at an early date, and unscrupulous workers were happy to oblige. Samuel Kempe, one of Böttger’s associates, absconded to Prussia, and with his assistance red stoneware was made at Plaue about 1713. Examples of Plaue’s wares were offered for sale at the Leipzig Fair in 1715. Unfortunately, no recipes for Böttger’s red stoneware body survive from the early years of production, but the earliest ingredients are mentioned in a manuscript of 1736 stating: “and as they found the clay from the Plauen Grund is rather liquid, they added instead a flux of the firmer Nuremberg Red [clay] or earth.”4 According to other contemporary accounts, clay from a number of different sources evidently was used. Samuel Stöltzel, the early compounder and kilnmaster writing in 1725, and the arcanist, Johann Christian Schatter writing in 1738, both confirm the predominant use of clay from Nuremberg and red clay from the Plauen Figure 2.

  • The Discovery of European Porcelain Technology
    Preprint from: QUEIROZ, C. M.; AGATHOPOULOS, S. (2005) - The discovery of European porcelain technology. In PRUDÊNCIO, Mª Isabel; DIAS, Mª Isabel; WAERENBORGH, J. C., eds. – Understanding people through their pottery (Trabalhos de Arqueologia; N.º 42). Lisboa: Instituto Português de Arqueologia, p. 211-215. The Discovery of European Porcelain Technology C.M. Queiroz1, S. Agathopoulos Ceramics and Glass Engineering Department, University of Aveiro, University Campus, 3810-193 Aveiro, Portugal 1corresponding author; email: [email protected] Key Words: August the Strong, Böttger, Meissen, History of Porcelain, Tschirnhaus Abstract The European quest for the hard paste porcelain lasted until about 1710, when the first production unit was built at Meissen in Saxony. Although, it is generally believed that Böttger discovered the European porcelain technology, this work shows that the German porcelain quest was a State affair; a collective project directed by Tschirnhaus and supported by August the Strong. It also aims to shed light to the reasons that led to Tschirnhaus’s relative oblivion. Considering three distinct temporal stages, we re- -examine the roles of the main contributors to the porcelain project, referring to the role of the Mercantilism system and to the philosophical roots of Tschirnhaus’s method. 1. The Trigger Conditions: Mercantilism, Baroque and Modern Science The German discovery of porcelain production techniques was probably the most emblematic technical achievement of Baroque period, aimed to fulfil the Baroque aesthetical opulence and the luxurious way of life of the noble class, under the economical constraints of the Mercantilist policy. This quest should be considered as one of the earliest successes of modern experimental method, as outlined by Francis Bacon in Novum Organum (1620), emphasizing the experimentalist approach, while the importance of mathematics was underestimated.
