Der "Kapellmeister" der famosen "Affenkapelle" ist eine der insgesamt 21 handbemalten Sammelfiguren von Johann Joachim Kaendler von 1753. Der Affe als damals sehr beliebtes Motiv war auch das Motiv seiner Wahl, um mit seinem Kunsthandwerk die höfische Gesellschaft ironisch darzustellen. Die Figur "Kapellmeister" mit der pompösen Perücke und energischer Haltung wird, wie die anderen 20 Sammelfiguren, von Hand geformt sowie handbemalt. Jeder Affe des charmanten Affenorchesters ist somit einzigartig und zeugt von der über 310-jährigen Erfahrung im traditionellen Kunsthandwerk der ältesten Porzellanmanufaktur Europas. Außerdem erinnert jede Figur an die einmaligen Kunstfertigkeiten des großen Kaendlers, dem ersten Modellmeister von MEISSEN.

Ryan ★★★★★

The hand-painted details on this Kapellmeister figure are incredibly fine, especially the little baton and the expression on his face. It’s a charming piece that captures the original 18th-century whimsy perfectly. Arrived well-packaged and looks wonderful on my shelf.

George ★★★★★

This little conductor monkey has so much personality for something only 17.5 cm tall. The hand-painted finish on the baton and coat is incredibly fine, making him look like a tiny museum piece.

Steven ★★★★★

The hand-painted details on this little monkey conductor are incredible—the baton and tiny tail are so delicate. It fits perfectly with my other antique-style figurines. I’m thrilled to add this piece to my collection.
