It stands in a trembleuse saucer of slightly-lobed oval outline. The cup is decorated with two purple-outlined oblong panels, each showing a scene of buildings fronted by water, with mountains int he distance and figures in the foreground, painted in tons of violet, blue-green, yellow and red. Above the handles are formal ornaments of palmettes and scrolls painted in purple monochrome. A border of scrolls, rosettes and diaper-panels similarly painted runs round the lower part of the cup. There are bands of plain gilding round the foot and the inside of the lip, and the upper parts of the handles are similarly gilt. The saucer is decorated at either end with a four-lobed panel outlined with purple, painted with scenes similar to those on the cup. Between these and following the rim of the saucer, are oriental motifs consisting of a diaper-panel flanked by scrollwork, all painted in purple monochrome. A diaper-panel similarly painted decorates the centre of the saucer inside the trembleuse lattice.","artistMakerPerson":[],"artistMakerOrganisations":[{"name":{"text":"Imperial Vienna Porcelain factory","id":"A29273"},"association":{"text":"maker","id":"x40240"},"note":""}],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"hard paste porcelain","id":"AAT10663"}],"techniques":[{"text":"painted","id":"AAT54216"},{"text":"gilded","id":"AAT53789"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Hard-paste porcelain painted in colours and gilded","categories":[{"text":"Ceramics","id":"THES48982"},{"text":"Porcelain","id":"THES48907"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"CER","id":"THES48594"},"images":["2006AY6370","2006AY6369","2017JT8003"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"139","id":"THES49874"},"free":"","case":"20","shelf":"7","box":""},{"current":{"text":"139","id":"THES49874"},"free":"","case":"20","shelf":"7","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"cups","id":"AAT43202"}],[{"text":"Saucer","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""},{"apprise":"","note":""},{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"Vienna","id":"x29246"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"ca. 1735","earliest":"1730-01-01","latest":"1739-12-31"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Bought","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Height","value":"3 1/4","unit":"in","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"cup","note":"taken from Register"},{"dimension":"Diameter","value":"2 5/8","unit":"in","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"cup","note":"taken from Register"},{"dimension":"Length","value":"6 1/2","unit":"in","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"saucer","note":"taken from Register"}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[{"content":"K, incised","inscriber":{"name":{"text":"","id":""},"association":{"text":"","id":""}},"date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"description":"","interpretation":"","language":"","medium":"","method":"","position":"","script":"","translation":"","transliteration":"","type":"","note":"beneath the saucer"},{"content":"\"A\", painted in pale blue enamel","inscriber":{"name":{"text":"","id":""},"association":{"text":"","id":""}},"date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"description":"","interpretation":"","language":"","medium":"","method":"","position":"","script":"","translation":"","transliteration":"","type":"","note":"beneath the saucer"}],"objectHistory":"Bought with C.64-1949 from the Evelyn Reynolds Collection, Sotheby's, 1 Nov. 1949, lot 114.\r\n\r\n(Note in Register) It has been suggested in view of the enamelled \"A\" mark that these cups and saucers were painted by Johann Karl Wendelin Anreiter von Zirnfeld.","historicalContext":"","briefDescription":"Cup and saucer of hard-paste porcelain painted in colours and gilded, du Paquier factory, Austria (Vienna), ca. 1735 to 1740","bibliographicReferences":[{"reference":{"text":"","id":""},"details":"","free":"Johann  Kräftner, ed., Baroque Luxury Porcelain, the Manufactories of du Paquier in Vienna and of Carlo Ginori in Florence, exhibition catalogue, Liechtenstein Museum, Vienna"}],"production":"","productionType":{"text":"","id":""},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[],"contentOthers":[{"text":"buildings","id":"AAT4792"},{"text":"mountains","id":"AAT8795"},{"text":"water","id":"AAT11772"},{"text":"figures","id":"AAT189808"},{"text":"palmettes","id":"AAT9995"},{"text":"scrolls","id":"AAT10094"},{"text":"rosettes","id":"AAT9972"},{"text":"diaper","id":"AAT231169"},{"text":"scrollwork","id":"AAT10205"}],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[],"partNumbers":["C.63-1949","C.63A-1949"],"accessionNumberNum":"63","accessionNumberPrefix":"C","accessionYear":1949,"otherNumbers":[],"copyNumber":"","aspects":["WHOLE","Cup","Saucer"],"assets":[],"recordModificationDate":"2025-04-22","recordCreationDate":"2009-06-24","availableToBook":false}}
