160. A Meissen figure of Pantalone from the Duke of Weissenfels series, circa 1745 Modelled by Peter Reinicke, wearing a black skullcap and dressed in a white cloak, red tunic and trousers, 13.2cm high (chips to his fingers and some chips to the base) Based upon the engraving by Joullain after Jacques Callot, see M. Chilton, Harlequin Unmasked (2001), no. 105, fig. 316. Reinicke's work records state in March 1744: '1 Pandelon in Thon reparirt' [1 Pantalone modelled in clay], and in April 1744: '1 Pandelon, 7 1/2 Zoll hoch, zu bohsiren angefangen' [1 Pantalone, 7 1/2 Zoll high, started to model]; see R. Jansen (ed.), Commedia dell'Arte Fest der Komödianten, 2001, p.27. Kaendler reworked a number of the models from the series and mentions correcting the figure of Pantalone in his work records in May 1744 (Jansen, Commedia dell'Arte, p. 28).
