Description
Art Nouveau vase by ERNST WAHLISS. Bohemia, ca. 1910.
Enamelled porcelain.
Stamped and numbered on the reverse.
Chipped at the feet on the back.
Measurements: 40 x 19 x 17 cm.
Central European Art Nouveau style sculptural vase, mould-made in porcelain with a structure completely defined by the decoration, showing the anti-classical intention typical of this style. This can also be seen in the naturalistic detail of the modelling work, in the soft polychromy of the undefined, lightened colours, and in the fluidity and softness of the modelling. Nevertheless, the subject derives from the classical world, specifically from Bacchic scenes, with a young woman beside a fountain with the face of a faun, surrounded by grapes and vine leaves, although it is approached from a completely Art Nouveau point of view.
Ernst Wahliss (1836-1900). He was a leading Viennese retailer of porcelain and ceramic wares. His Vienna shop was established in 1863. His business was so successful that he was able to open another shop in London. In 1894, Ernst Wahliss decided to take over Alfred Stellmacher's factory in Turn-Teplitz (located in today's Czech Republic). He changed the name of the factory to Ernst Wahliss Kunst, Porzellan und Fayence Fabrik. Ernst died in 1900. Two years later, his sons, Hans and Erich, bought 600 moulds from the Imperial and Royal Porcelain Factory in Vienna. With these moulds they began to make reproductions of Vienna porcelain. In 1905, the company was renamed Alexandra Porcelain Works Ernst Wahliss. In 1907 the factory was taken over by Gerhard Martin Wahliss. In 1910, the factory focused on the production of earthenware and was temporarily closed due to World War I. In 1921, it became part of the company. In 1921 it became part of Porzellanfabrik Union AG, and in 1929 production ceased. Its pieces from the Art Nouveau period, which are close in style to the Austrian Jugendstil, are particularly well known.
