Enfilade

Apollo Magazine’s weekly competition:

We are pleased to announce that our new competition prize is The Arnhold Collection of Meissen Porcelain 1710–50 by Cassidy-Geiger, Sebastian Kuhn and Heike Biedermann (The Frick Collection, $275), to coincide with our just published July/August issue, which celebrates the 300th anniversary of the Meissen manufactury’s foundation. The Arnhold porcelain collection is one of the most important great prewar Meissen collections to have survived intact. Uniquely, most of the pieces date from the first decades of the royal factory, established by August II, Elector of Saxony and King of Poland, in 1710. The collection features a broad range of early work – much of it experimental, including table and chocolate services; figures; European porcelains and Asian ceramics.

For your chance to win, simply answer the following question:
In what year did Johann Joachim Kändler become Modellmeister at the Meissen factory?

Email your answers to offers@apollomag.com using ‘Meissen’ as the subject of your email. Only answers received before midday on 7th July will be entered into the competition draw.

Good luck!
