Literatur:- Adams, Len and Yvonne: Meissen Portrait Figures, Leicester 1992, S.188 und 195.- Rückert, Rainer: Meissener Porzellan von 1710-1810. Kat. Nr.1064-1078.- VEB Staatliche Porzellanmanufaktur Meissen (Hrsg.): Figuren 1. Vgl. Kapitel Affenmusiker.- www.meissen.com (Stand 04.03.2020).Die in aufwendiger Kleidung des Rokokos gestalteten Affenfiguren parodieren in höchst überspitzter Form die oberste Gesellschaftsschicht im 18. Jahrhundert und ihre Allüren. Historischen Überlieferungen nach sollen sie zudem im speziellen eine Karikatur der Kapelle des Grafen Brühl sein. Die männlichen Affen nehmen hierbei die Rollen der Musiker ein, während die weiblichen Affen als Sängerinnen dargestellt sind.Die genaue Entstehungszeit der Kapelle ist bis heute nicht genau zu belegen. Allerdings lässt sich anhand der Formnummern und einem Kauf von 19 solcher Figuren durch Madame de Pompadour eine Entstehung um das Jahr 1753 vermuten. Wohl von Johann Joachim Kaendler erschaffen und unter Mitwirkung Peter Reinickes im Jahr 1765/66 neu überarbeitet gelten die Affen als der "skurrilste Klassiker des Meissener Barock" (www.meissen.com).Mitte des 18.Jh. erfreuten sich Affendarstellungen welche in parodistischer Weise menschliche Züge annehmen größter Beliebtheit. Dieses Genre der sog. "Singerien" (franz. "singe" = Affe) wurde nicht nur in Porzellan umgesetzt, sondern findet sich ebenso in Decken- und Wandmalereien oder auf Gobelins. So lässt sich vermuten, dass u.a. wohl die Wandmalereien Christophe Hüets im sog. Affenkabinett des Schlosses Chantilly als Vorbild für die Meissener Kapelle gelten dürfen. Eine weitere französische Vorlage könnte eine Affenkapelle der Manufaktur Mennecy aus den 40er Jahren sein. Ebenso erinnert eine um 1745 entstandene Alabaster-Kapelle aus Venedig im Metropolitan Museum in New York stark an die Kaendlersche Kapelle. Erläuterungen zum KatalogMeissen Deutschland Porzellan 20./21. Jahrhundert Affenkapelle Kaendler, Johann Joachim MEISSEN16 PORCELAIN FIGURINES AND A MUSIC DESK FROM THE APE CHAPEL.

Signature: Swordsmark, once with one grind, once with two grinds, different model numbers, porcelain former's numbers and year marks, some with painter's numbers in red and black. Literature:- Adams, Len and Yvonne: Meissen Portrait Figures, Leicester 1992, P.188 und 195.- Rückert, Rainer: Meissener Porzellan von 1710-1810. Cat. Nr.1064-1078- www.meissen.com (Stand 04.03.2020)The monkey figurines, dressed in elaborate rococo clothing, parody the upper social class of the 18th century and its allures in a highly exaggerated manner. Historical records suggest that the eccentric apes were inspired in particular by the chapel of Count Brühl. The male monkeys take on the roles of the musicians, while the female monkeys are portrayed as singers.Even though the exact date of origin of the chapel is not precisely documented, the form numbers and a purchase of 19 such figures by Madame de Pompadour suggest that the figurines were developed around 1753. Probably created by Johann Joachim Kaendler and reviewed in 1765/66 with the assistance of Peter Reinicke, the monkeys are considered the "most bizarre classic of the Meissen Baroque" (www.meissen.com). In the middle of the 18th century depictions of monkeys, which in a parodistic way depict human traits, enjoyed great popularity. This genre of the so-called "Singerie" (French "singe" = monkey) was not only interpreted in porcelain, but can also be found in wall and ceiling frescoes or on goblins. There is a presumption that Christophe Hueet's wall paintings in the so-called monkey cabinet of Chantilly Castle may be regarded as a model for the Meissen chapel. Another French model could be a monkey chapel of the Mennecy Manufactory from the 1740s. Another example of a chapel that resembles Kaendler's models for the Meissen manufactory is an alabaster chapel from Venice, made around 1745, that today is exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum in New York.
