Lit.:
Porzellan Sammlung Dresden, Führer durch die ständige Ausstellung im Zwinger, p. 223, Kändler had already created the model for the statuette of Mary Immaculate in 1738 and mentions it in his work journal in July... 'a Mother of God of the same size as the apostles, which was also commissioned by the Royal Court' ... This model of Mary Immaculate was intended for the widow of the Austrian Emperor, Wilhelmine Amalia, 1672-1742, who was supposed to receive it along with the 12 apostles and an altar piece.
The execution of the entire group was so long that the emperor’s widow died before completion and the Madonna was delivered to Count Brühl instead. Prince-Elector Clemens August of Cologne received a second version with polychrome painted decoration, a third unpainted one remained at the Electoral Saxon Court in Dresden. With a cross in his hands, the Christ Child is depicted in the act of conquering the evil the dragon represents.
