Flora
Nymphenburg, as of 1925, Josef Wackerle

Porcelain. Colourfully painted. On a base. Impressed mark and makers mark. Model number 586,1. Height 66 cm. Wackerle first designed this model in bronze for the so-called Lloydzimmer in Bremen, furnished by P. L. Troost. The porcelain moulding was produced a little later in an edition of ten models, which were ordered by the industrial producer "Innwerk" for exclusive gift purposes. -Here the 2nd colour variant is offered, i.e. the robe in blue, brown contoured. The somewhat earlier model was yellow and decorated with purple vines. Vgl. Ziffer, Alfred (Hrsg.), Nymphenburger Moderne. Die Porzellanmanufaktur im 20.Jh. Ausst.-Kat.
