Object history
The plaque is in the same commemorative vein as a series of New Year red stoneware plaques produced by Meissen from 1918 to 1934 which were designed by various well-known Meissen designers. Meissen used such plaques as those, and this one, as presentation pieces which made attractive gifts as well as serving to promote Meissen and its designers.
