The "Bagpiper" must also not be missing from Johann Joachim Kaendler's "Monkey Chapel". He is one figure among 20 others, which are perfectly suitable as collectible figures. The monkey as a motif was perfectly suited at the time, 1753, to ironically hold up a mirror to courtly society. Both were quite common in arts and crafts at that time. Also common, then as now, is that each figure in this ensemble is assembled and hand-painted by hand. This makes each of the monkeys unique and particularly appealing to collectible figurine enthusiasts. Add to their decor a great hand-painted piece of Meissen craftsmanship that will delight everyone.
