Figure representing spring c. 1765 - 1770

This porcelain figurine, created by the Porzellanmanufaktur Frankenthal around 1765-1770, depicts a charming scene of a couple exchanging baskets of fruit. The figures are dressed in the fashionable attire of the 18th century, emphasizing the Rococo style of the period. The intricate details of the clothing and the delicate brushstrokes used to paint the flowers and foliage showcase the skill of the artisans. This piece, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the artistry of German porcelain production during the Rococo era and serves as a window into the social customs of the time.
