Figure in the shape of a Japanese man with a fish 1911

This 1911 porcelain sculpture, created by the Königliche Porzellan Manufaktur, depicts a stylized Japanese man carrying a large fish on his shoulder. The figure's muscular physique and the stylized wave base contribute to an Art Deco aesthetic. This piece is a fine example of the artistic trends in porcelain design during the early 20th century, reflecting a growing fascination with non-European cultures and the use of simplified forms and geometric patterns.
