"Peddler" is a porcelain figurine created by the Capodimonte Porcelain Manufactory in Naples, Italy, between 1745 and 1755. The figure depicts a man in 18th-century clothing, likely a street vendor, carrying a tray of goods. Made of white porcelain, it is delicately painted with gold and blue accents. The figurine, currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, is a fine example of Capodimonte porcelain, renowned for its high quality and intricate details. This piece showcases the manufactory's skilled artistry and the craftsmanship of the era, reflecting the popular genre of "figurines" that became common during this period.
