Harlequin 1749 - 1764

This porcelain figurine of a Harlequin, crafted by the Fürstenberg Porcelain Manufactory between 1749-1764, is a beautiful example of 18th-century German porcelain. The figurine, standing at 7 3/4 inches tall, depicts a playful and animated Harlequin in his signature costume, complete with a green hat, a white and green patterned suit, and red and blue shoes. This porcelain figure captures the essence of Commedia dell'arte, a popular form of Italian theater that flourished in Europe during this period. The Harlequin's mischievous grin and exaggerated pose add to the comedic nature of the figurine, making it a delightful and engaging piece of art.
