It is hard to believe that the creator of this lavishly designed elephant vase did not become rich and famous. So finely and accurately drawn are the two animal heads complete with trunks and tusks on both sides of this four-sided vase. The base of the 35-centimetre-high vessel is covered with a relief resembling chestnut foliage. Ludwig Tischler only worked at Manufaktur Nymphenburg for three years, but during this time he created masterpieces of the highest order.
