Why don't you give exact delivery time?

Short description:
Tiere für das Schloss des Königs geschaffen von wahren Großmeistern der Porzellankunst. Dieser Band gewährt unter anderem einen gezielten Blick auf die Umstände der Herstellung der Meißner Porzellantiere und auf das Kunstverständnis bzw. Tierverständnis ihrer Schöpfer. Darüber hinaus geht der Autor der Frage nach, welche Bedeutung den Meißener Tiergroßplastiken in, aber auch nach ihrer Entstehungszeit zukam bzw. zukommt.
