Columbine and Pantaloon 1733 - 1743

This Meissen porcelain figurine depicts a young couple, "Columbine" and "Pantaloon," in a playful scene. Crafted between 1733 and 1743, the figures are depicted in a dynamic composition that reflects the popular Commedia dell'arte theater of the period. The detailed costumes and vibrant colors typical of the Meissen Manufactory showcase the artistry of the early porcelain makers, making this a prime example of the high-quality, expressive work produced by the factory during its golden age.
