Synopsis
- More than 150 pugs and a wonderful variety of other dogs - Knowledgeable texts about the pug as a popular companion at European courts - Terrific insight into a previously unpublished southern German private collection In the 18th century pugs found their way onto the laps of noblewomen and, with this, into the portraits of contemporary rulers. Small and forever panting, the pug could not be put to use as a watchdog or a herding dog, but it compensated for this with its charm. The dog ultimately found its way onto porcelain and faience. Johann Joachim Kändler, the most significant modeler of the Meissen porcelain manufactory, designed over 60 variants of the pug between 1740 and 1760 - standing, lying, scratching, and performing tricks. Kändler portrayed the pug belonging to Count Heinrich von Brühl in a splendid one-off, but he also produced models for serial production. This southern German collection comprises over 150 ceramic pugs as well as other dogs. Moreover, they do not just appear individually; they may also be part of a courtly scene or decorate wares in the gallant style - accessories such as flacons, (snuff) boxes, and walking-stick handles. Text in English and German., In the 18th century pugs found their way onto the laps of noblewomen and, with this, into the portraits of contemporary rulers. Small and forever panting, the pug could not be put to use as a watchdog or a herding dog, but it compensated for this with its charm. The dog ultimately found its way onto porcelain and faience.

This southern German collection comprises over 150 ceramic pugs as well as other dogs. Moreover, they do not just appear individually; they may also be part of a courtly scene or decorate wares in the gallant style - accessories such as flacons, (snuff) boxes, and walking-stick handles. Text in English and German., Courtly Companions is a very special book for both enthusiasts of porcelain and dog lovers -- and an enormous joy for all those for whom a passion for collecting and humour go hand in hand. 'Life without a pug is possible, but pointless,' as the German humourist and writer Vicco von Bülow, aka Loriot, is readily quoted as saying. Celebrity artist Andy Warhol too was a self-confessed pug enthusiast and took pleasure in being photographed with the diminutive dog. Yet long before it became a firm fixture in Pop culture, the pug enjoyed great popularity in high society. Pugs held a very special place in the Chinese Empire, for example, and for a long time were kept exclusively at the empirical courts. From the sixteenth century on, they came to Europe, where they fulfilled an important role as diplomatic gifts. Two hundred years later they found their way onto the laps of noblewomen -- and with them, into the portraits of contemporary rulers. The love of these small, panting dogs was also reflected in porcelain and faience. Between 1740 and 1760 Joachim Kaendler, the most renowned modeller of the Meissen Porcelain Manufactory, alone created over sixty variants of pugs - standing, lying, scratching, and performing tricks. In one example, Kaendler portrayed the pug belonging to Count Heinrich von Brühl in a splendid one-off, but he also produced models for serial production.
