Hunters 1740 - 1750

This porcelain sculpture, created by the Meissen Manufactory in the mid-18th century, depicts a scene of hunting. The figures are realistically rendered, capturing the details of their clothing and postures. The scene features a couple and a hunting dog, suggesting a leisurely pursuit of game. The sculpture, now held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a fine example of Meissen's skilled craftsmanship and its popularity in depicting contemporary European life.
