Boy 1760 - 1770

This porcelain figurine, titled "Boy," was created by the Höchst Manufactory, a renowned German ceramics workshop, between 1760 and 1770. The figure depicts a young boy in a charming pose, dressed in a simple yet elegant outfit. The detailed modeling and delicate painting of the figurine are characteristic of the Höchst Manufactory's renowned craftsmanship during the Rococo period. This piece, now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York, exemplifies the playful and expressive nature of 18th-century German porcelain sculpture.
