This porcelain figure, known as "Nodding Pagod," was created by the Meissen Manufactory in Germany between 1755 and 1765. The figure, depicting a seated, bald man wearing a colorful robe with a cheerful expression, exemplifies the Rococo style popular in the 18th century. This figurine's playful nature and exaggerated features, along with the vibrant colors and intricate details of the robe, represent the whimsical and decorative aesthetic of the era. It is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
