Figure of a seated boy with fruit 1770 - 1780

This porcelain figurine, created in Höchst, Germany, between 1770 and 1780, depicts a young boy seated on a grassy mound, enjoying a snack of fruit. The figurine, which measures 12 cm in height, is a charming example of Rococo-era porcelain sculpture. The delicate details of the boy's clothing and the playful depiction of his enjoyment of the simple pleasures of life are characteristic of the period. The piece was likely intended as a decorative object for a private home, and it is a testament to the skill of the Höchst porcelain factory.
