This listing is for a superb Royal Vienna porcelain plate depicting “Rahel” (Rachel) from the Torah or Old Testament. After the biblical period, “Mother Rachel” continued to be celebrated as a powerful intercessor for the people of Israel. The younger daughter of Laban and wife of the patriarch, Jacob, Rachel is revered as the mother of Joseph and Benjamin, who become two of the twelve tribes of Israel in Genesis. Forced to serve Rachel’s father, Laban, for seven years to win her, Jacob was tricked at the end of that time into marrying her sister, Leah. He was then allowed to marry Rachel, his true love, in return for seven more years of servitude. Hand-painted and signed by the exceptional artist, Froli, this museum-quality antique features a side-profile portrait of the Biblical heroine, Rachel. The artist captures Rachel’s beauty and femininity with lifelike precision. Her strength, resilience, and breathtaking elegance translate through Froli’s portrait. This FULLY hand-painted piece (NO transfers here) is in EXCELLENT condition with NO chips, cracks, or crazing! A few fine scratches, but overall the paint remains vibrant and virtually unscathed by the passage of time. Measures approximately 10 in diameter. The composition is surrounded by a simply stunning gilt floral scalloped border with purple/mauve shading. It bears the underglaze blue shield mark with “Austria” beneath, and the title “Rahel” on the back. Do not pass up your opportunity to own this Royal Vienna cabinet plate.
