Stein Hauber & Reuther #154 "Peasant Dance".
The collectible German beer mug was made at the famous Hauber & Reuther factory in the period 1882-1886. The mug is decorated with a drawing from the story group "Peasant Dance". This story group was formed as an artistic decoration in the German lands during the 16th century. At that time, no one even thought of using these subjects to decorate facades or friezes of beer mugs. This artistic line became widespread in the German lands due to the fact that metal engravers in the early 1520s received the technology of mass replication of images on paper or cheap fabric.
As a result, cheaper drawings began to be put up for sale during local traditional fairs. Farmers were most fascinated by plots involving the same characters as them.
The most famous and recognized founder of the genre of artistic depiction of "peasant dance scenes" was the German Renaissance artist Hans Sebald Beham (1500-1550). He worked in the technique of engraving. Thanks to her, the artist's works became widespread and accessible even to peasants. Engravings by Hans Sebald Beham about the life and holidays of peasants were in demand at seasonal fairs. Over time, scenes from engravings by Hans Sebald Beham depicting the life and holidays of peasants became part of the cultural heritage of the German lands. This was especially evident in the second half of the 19th century. All the major pottery manufactories of that time used scenes from the peasant life of Hans Sebald Beham to decorate their products.
The inscription on the rim of the lid is a dedication in German: "C. Schelling genen. s. Collegen der Locomotivführer». It means "K. To Schelling from his colleagues, locomotive engineers."
