Sabina Auffenwerth was one of the first named women in Europe working alongside male counterpart within pottery design and decoration. However before the 19th century, many women were under-acknowledged for their contribution to pottery and therefore a lot of her work is unknown and unacknowledged. She worked alongside her sister of Anna Elisabeth Auffenwerth in Augsburg during the mid 1700s. They worked for their father, a gold smith named Johann Auffenwerth, where they gained skills working with metals such as gold and silver. They produced chinoiserie silhouette designs from 1720 to 1760 for the Meissen porcelain factory. They mainly designed objects such as cups, tea pots, saucers and plates which were described as 'imaginatively conceived family scenes in indoor settings, comedies and musicians after Watteau, cavaliers and their ladies, hunting and battle scenes, portraitists and finally, mythological and allegorical themes' She married an engraver and publisher, Issak Heinrich Hosennestel, in 1731 and continued to work for Meissen. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sabina Aufenwerth」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
