It is very likely the scenes are taken from engravings after works by Jean-Baptiste Pillement (1728-1808).
A tea canister with similar decoration which seems to be after the same print source is illustrated in B. Beaucamp-Markowsky, Frankenthaler Porzellan, vol. III (Das Geschirr), p. 219, no. 115. A pair of cups and saucers from the same service as the present lot were in the Ingrid Loosen-Grill Collection, sold Van Ham Kunstauktionen, Cologne, 14 May 2016, lot 1052.
