This charming porcelain figurine, titled "Four Musicians," was created by Mennecy in the late 18th century. The group depicts three figures playing musical instruments, with a fourth figure possibly represented by the empty space between the musicians. The colorful, intricate details of their clothing and the delicate floral patterns on their base evoke the elegance and sophistication of the Rococo period. This work is a testament to the craftsmanship of the Mennecy factory and the popularity of musical themes in 18th century art. The figurine's small scale allows for intimate viewing, making it a delightful object for collectors and lovers of decorative art. The "Four Musicians" is currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
