Saucer with a putto on clouds 1785

This 1785 saucer, created by the Ansbach workshop, is a fine example of European porcelain. The delicate, hand-painted design features a cherub on clouds holding a framed image of a putto, all executed in a vibrant purple hue. The rim is adorned with a gilded rope pattern and additional floral motifs. The intricate details of the cherub and its surroundings add to the saucer's aesthetic appeal, highlighting the skill of the Ansbach artisans in the 18th century. Today, it can be viewed in the prestigious collection of the Rijksmuseum.
