For your consideration are a lot of (2) Nymphenburg blanc-de-chine porcelain figures. The first figure depicts the Roman goddess Juno with a peacock. Juno, known as the goddess of womanhood and childbirth and mother to Mars, is beautifully modeled reclining on a rock and is marked on its underside with both the impressed Nymphenburg shield mark and a "96/10" mark. This figure measures 4 1/2"(w) x 4 1/2(h) x 3 1/4(d). The second figure also depicts Juno, but in her more Hera-like status, with eagle and grasping a lightening bolt. This version of Juno, as a warrior-type, appeared later in her mythological development. This figure also carries the impressed Nymphenburg shield mark and the model number "97/3" and measures 4 1/4"(w) x 5"(h) x 3"(d). Both figures were originally designed by Franz Anton Bustelli and the lot weighs 1 pound, 1 ounce.

Provenance: From the private collection of Katherine McPherson of Olmos Park, Texas.
