Category: Silke Ebermann

In stilisiert verniedlichter Form tritt uns die Jahresfigur "Schwein" der Meissener Künstlerin Silke Ebermann entgegen und löst sich selbstbewusst von der Tradition rein naturalistischer Tierdarstellungen bei MEISSEN. Für das Motiv ließ sich Ebermann von der chinesischen Astrologie inspirieren, in der das Jahr 2019 im Zeichen des Schweins steht. Detailreich ausgearbeitet erhält die Figur nach der Weißfertigung eine Staffage per Hand in zurückhaltenden Pastelltönen, wobei charakteristische Züge in feinen Pinselstrichen hervorgehoben werden. Dargestellt in kindlich erheischender Haltung lenkt seine Farb- und Formensprache die Aufmerksamkeit auf die großen, ausdrucksstark ausgearbeiteten Augen des Tieres. Aus ihnen spricht der lieblich-kindliche Charakter der Jahresfigur.

Julian ★★★★★

This little pig figurine is even more charming in person, with the delicate hand-painted details on its curly tail and snout really standing out. The soft, pastel coloring and playful, stylized pose make it a cheerful addition to my shelf.

Kevin K. ★★★★★

The porcelain has a nice weight to it, feels sturdy despite being only 11.5 cm tall. The hand-painted details on the snout and tail are surprisingly crisp for such a small figurine. It's a cheerful little fellow that adds a playful touch to my shelf.

Penelope K. ★★★★★

The stylized, almost cartoonish shape is what sold me—it’s cute without being kitschy, and the light weight makes it easy to perch on a shelf. I’ve had it a week and it’s already my favorite little desk companion.
