LOT 21 Big lion made of terracotta. Probably pottery Michael Schroeck/Mariakirchen, mid 19th century l. 58 cm. Fully plastic figure of a lying lion made of terracotta, white glazed and decorated with sharp fire colours. Probably the lion once belonged to a stove as a crowning glory, so the soot marks on the ground could be due to this. Defect on the back, chips. Provenance: From old South German private property. In a world art edition from the 1980s, Michael Schröck's pottery is presented in an article. He was specialized in modeling animals. The lions depicted in the article, almost identical to the specimen presented here, were, according to the article, attached to his estate as "advertisements". (She.Cf.Fig.).
