Exquisite antique artist signed painting on porcelain plaque depicting a beautiful nude lady lying on a daybed with her little dog cuddled up at the end of the bed. In the background are 2 servants preparing her clothes for the day. The plaque is signed K. Koch in the lower right. This is a German painting on porcelain plaque, artist signed, dating from the late 19th century. The plaque has incised numbers 311 and HR in a circle for Hutschenreuther. I have seen this subject painted on other porcelain plaques but never before an example of this high quality. Koch was considered among the best German painters specializing in paintings on porcelain in the late 19th century. The plaque and frame are in excellent condition. The plaque measures 7-1/4 inches wide by 5-1/16 inches high. The original carved gilt wood frame measures 13-3/4 inches wide at its widest point and 11-1/2 inches high at its highest point. This is by far the highest quality painting on porcelain plaque of this subject I have had the pleasure to see and own in my more than 45 years experience in this business. Guaranteed to please as are all our items. (Item #72326)
