Rectangular; warped in firing so that the unglazed reverse is slightly convex. Ariadne reclines on a couch on the right under two trees with a curtain draped over their branches to form an awning. Further to the right is a dancing putto, and a woman kneeling with her back to the viewer, holding a shallow basket of flowers. Ariadne looks towards her, while holding out a fruit/flower to a putto who is climbing onto the end of the couch. Behind him another putto kneels supporting on his head a shallow basket of fruit. Behind him are two trees in low relief. Further to the left girl and boy move to the left, the latter blowing a long pipe towards three birds flying overhead. Below, a putto plays with a swan, and on the extreme left there is a seated putto and a standing putto beside a bearded herm of Bacchus bedecked with a garland of flowers.D11referenceexhibition-1070adlib-exhibition-10702cb713dc-899f-35df-9c15-515a05f38d48Plagiarism Personified?

One or other is probably ‘Un piccolo bassorilievo esprimente un Baccanale, con forme di cera’ in the factory’s late 18th century inventory of models. In Die Modellsammlung der Porzellan-manufaktur Doccia, Klaus Lankeit also noted a payment to Vincenzo Foggini in 1746 for a ‘bassorilievo di un baccanale’, which might also refer to one or other relief. Dr Jennifer Montagu pointed out that the Fitzwilliam’s relief was ultimately derived from he central part of a French engraving, Le Printems: L'hymen de Zephyr et de Flore by Jean Baptiste de Poilly (1669-1728) after the first of Pierre I Mignard (1612-95) cycle of four seasons painted in 1677 for the Galerie d'Apollon in the Chateau de Sait-Cloud.referenceterm-106451adlib-term-1064519cdfd62c-ee07-3884-ae08-c797aad0863118th Century, Midreferenceterm-120391adlib-term-120391497501dd-eadb-380b-bb74-525ba197c6ccMarchese Ginori periodreferenceterm-117018adlib-term-117018577d78b9-6ccb-3b87-a80b-3a69b68c9473literalItalyItalycountryliteralTuscanyTuscanyregionDocciagreyish-whitereferenceterm-37627adlib-term-37627254febfe-0021-3e45-89a7-d57ba40044c7hard-paste porcelainHeightcm15.2Widthcm21.6referenceterm-110143adlib-term-1101437880ba6f-ffc7-3954-a9b0-88af32dbff6cpanelhistory noteSotheby’s, 14 November, 1924, lot 30; bought for £2.5.0 by Dr J.W.L.
