拍品专文

This type of satzthebecher or Häufbecher beaker with its distinctive applied mid-rib to allow the beakers to be stacked and prevent them from slipping too deeply, was often made in sets of six or twelve and became notably popular at the end of the 16th century and was a specialty of the goldsmithing center of Nuremberg.
The chased scene of hunting around the lip is inspired from a series of popular prints published by Harmen Jansz Müller after designs by Johannes Stradamus. Stradamus (1523-1605) was a Flemish artist active in Florence working for the Medici. These hunting scenes resemble those designed for Cosimo Medici's tapestries to decorate his villa in Poggio a Caiano inspired by hunting practices at the Florentine court. Stradanus produced twenty-eight drawings for the series later published as prints all over Europe and which had a lasting impact on goldsmiths.

Neumeister sold on 22 October 2019 in the Rudolph Neumeister collection under lot 35 a matching beaker to this pair previously in the collection of Baron Leopold von Rothschild, London.
