Head of Augustus, 18th century, Doccia Porcelain Manufactory, Sesto Fiorentino, Italy, Italian, 1735 - 1896, 16 x 9 1/2 x 9 1/2 in. (40.64 x 24.13 x 24.13 cm), Soft-paste porcelain, Italy, 18th century, Other entrepreneurial operations for porcelain arose in Europe following the success of Meissen. Marchese Carlo Ginori was granted a monopoly to produce porcelain in Tuscany by the ruling Austrians in 1735, and developed a thriving soft-paste porcelain firm still in production today, Doccia (now Richard-Ginori) in Florence. Ginori gave another, more affordable, life in porcelain to the works of famous Florentine Baroque designer Giovanni Battista Foggini (1652-1725), whose original models he purchased. As well, his skilled modelers recreated Italian Imperial portrait busts such as this head of the Roman Emperor Augustus (who ruled from 27 BC - 14 AD).

Head of Medusa early 18th century Italian Medusa was the Gorgon slain by Perseus, who presented her head crawling with serpents to the all-wise Minerva to wear on her shield. Medusas grisly yet mesmerizing countenance is encountered often on cameos, apparently as an advertisement of Minervas ability to ward off evil (see also 17.190.869 and 2003.431). This expressive example has been attributed both to the sixteenth century and to the nineteenth, but its robust, propulsive style and peculiar coloring, utilizing the top stratums brown to accent a snake and green flecks to create eerie effects against the pale cream body, may have been more thoroughly at home in the age of the Baroque..
