Vase
Ovoid shaped vase, high neck, enlarged mouth, high foot with flared stand.
Porcelain decorated in the mouth and foot with a golden band with dentils; in the shoulder there is a series of green leaves in relief; below bands the relief has two mythological scenes with rich colours: "Orgiastic scene"; "Actaeon surprises the nymphs in the bathroom and is transformed into a deer".
Due to imperfections and cracks, the vase is placed in the first period when manufacturer Carlo Ginori was active, 1750/55.
Øb cm. 7,5; h. cm. 175; Øp 7,5. Cond.: intact
Doccia, period of Carlo Ginori, 1750-1755.
[The vase is compared with similar ones, decorated with bands in relief in mythological style, but left in white, whose lead copies are in the Doccia Porcelain Museum. The use of mythological reliefs left in white is also seen on plates; see La manifattura toscana dei Ginori - Doccia 1737-1791, a c. from M. Buzzesi, Ospedaletto (Pisa) 1998; O. Ferrari, Porcellane del Settecento, MI 1966, pp. 115, 117.]
