porcelain, white glazed; the underside of the tear-shaped base with green manufactory mark Hutschenreuther Selb-Bavaria Abteilung für Kunst and artist’s mark: model by sculptor Th. A. Vos Amsterdam; height 28.2 cm. (MP)
Provenance:
Vetter Collection, Southern Germany.
Literature:
Mey, Im Zeichen des Löwen, Porzellan aus Künsterhand, p. 238, model number: 495.
For the Hutschenreuth art department Theo Vos created a series of ten designs, which were presented at the Leipzig fair from 1925/26 onwards. They also included three dance studies. The expressive dancer Gertud Leistikow has been identified as the model for at least two figures: “In their dizzying dynamics, the stylised dance studies convey the illusion of uninhibited movement that almost bursts the boundaries of matter.” (Mey, Im Zeichen des Löwen, Porzellan aus Künstlerhand, p. 238).
