This porcelain figurine, titled “Dancing Girl”, was created by the Meissen Manufactory between 1745 and 1758. The Meissen factory was renowned for its high-quality porcelain, and this figurine is a fine example of its craftsmanship. The figure, dressed in a colorful and intricately detailed outfit, embodies the Rococo style popular in Europe at the time. The delicate features of the dancer and the flow of her skirt suggest a sense of movement and grace, capturing the spirit of this period. This figurine, currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, is a testament to the enduring beauty of Meissen porcelain and the artistic spirit of the Rococo era.
