This porcelain figurine, produced by the Capodimonte Porcelain Manufactory between 1750 and 1764, depicts Scaramouche, a popular comedic character from the Commedia dell'arte, interacting with three children. The detailed modeling and vibrant colors of the figures are characteristic of Capodimonte porcelain, which was highly sought after during the 18th century. The piece showcases the craftsmanship of the Neapolitan manufactory and offers a glimpse into the world of Italian theater and popular culture.
