A very large Meissen Model of a Capercaille, beautifully modelled by Sigmund Karl August Ringler, in the white, standing on a rocky base incorporating a tree stump issuing a branch of leaves. The feathers with very great detail all over the bird, the head looking to one side and wings closed over its back.

 

According to its incised formnummer “K 106” the model of a capercaillie was modelled by August Ringler in the year 1876.

 

Sigmund Karl August Ringler (* 1837 in Kirchheim/ + 1918 in Meissen) studied at the Academie of Arts in Munic and joined the Meissen Manufactory in 1856. He is well-known for figurines in the “Rococo”-style and especially for his realistic groups of birds.

 

We would like to thank Dr Melitta Kunze-Koellensperger for her kind assistance with cataloguing this item
