Nymphenburg Hare Lamprecht
He who is crazy is mad as a March hare, he who cannot decide between two parties is trying to run with the hare and the hounds, he who is introducing an intriguing new topic is starting a hare: It sure seems as though the hare has left its mark on the English language. Also the arts have widely covered the hare – think Christian symbolism or Dürer.
Theodor Kärner’s sculpture ranks formidably among the artistic depiction of the hare and precisely captures those qualities which have inspired idioms and artwork alike: the vigilant nature of its slender posture and its reclusive, alert glaze.
Theodor Kärner’s Hare is hand made from white bisque porcelain. With its height of 28 cm, it is one of the most spectacular free standing sculptures manufactured by Nymphenburg. We will be happy to provide consulting in our showroom with regard to this unique piece.
