Description

MEASURES: Fox lying down: Height: 7,8 inch; Width: 16,33 inch; Depth: 6,9 inch CONDITIONS: Perfect in all respects. Item description: Fabulous sculpture depicting a lying fox in hard vitrified porcelain, entirely decorated by hand, created by the very famous sculptor and ceramist Theodor Karner (1884-1966) for the equally famous and important German manufacturer Rosenthal, signed under glaze, under the base, both with the Rosenthal brand and the artist's name embedded in the ceramic mixture. Useful information for the evaluation of the object: He is one of the most important German ceramists of the first decades of the 1900s who boasts over a thousand auction results and above all pieces sold at exorbitant prices considering that porcelains from the first decades of the 1900s are usually heavily penalized by auction houses. In the last photos we have reported the highest results obtained from porcelain sculptures by Theodore Karner, and always consider that, to the price of the hammer, the auction fees must be added which usually range from 25% to 30%. Then we reported the auction results for objects very similar to our fox, in terms of measurements and subject depicted. Furthermore, it should also be considered that very few artists of the first decades of the 1900s can boast similar results for their porcelain sculptures, therefore by definition multiples, which confirms the great artistic importance of this author.
