Description:

Royal Copenhagen 12421 Jutland 3.5" In nice and mint condition
Carl Martin-Hansen (1877-1941)
Danish National Costumes
This series comprises in all 47 figures, which were produced in the period 1906-1925. The artist was much admired by his contemporaries for his considerable production of busts and public monuments. He belonged to a school of Danish artists, which, after the turn of the century, carried on the naturalistic tradition in works, marked by both tastefulness and richness of characterisation.
The series of Danish national coastlines was without doubt one of Carl Martin-Hansen's greatest successes. In keeping with the dictates of the school of art to which he be1onged, he demanded that all the detail s in the regional costumes should be absolutely correct. They were copied from original s in the National and otter Danish Museums. As can be dearly observed from the close-up pictures, which follow, not a single characteristic detail was missed out. This artistic criterion could only be met because the Royal Copenhagen Porcelain Manufactory had at its disposal a staff of craftsmen, which had inherited a tradition for meticulous painting technique _own the generations from the factory's first golden age in the l780s.
