As a visionary, during his tenure as Manufaktur Nymphenburg’s director, Albert Bäuml was forever fetching famous artists to Nördliches Schlossrondell. From 1905 onwards, he put his faith in Adelbert Niemeyer, one of the most important proponents of art nouveau, even allowing him to set up his own studio in one of the pavilions. This cylindrical vase is one of Niemeyer’s most influential designs. A wide, reddish purple cube motif frieze runs round the upper edge while additional gold ornaments extend as far as the small feet.
