Chinese rooster 1732

This porcelain sculpture of a rooster was created in 1732 by the Meissen Manufactory in Germany. The Meissen Manufactory, established in 1710, was one of the earliest and most important porcelain factories in Europe. The rooster, standing on a leafy base, is decorated with intricate details and bright colors, showcasing the mastery of Meissen's porcelain production. This piece reflects the popularity of Chinoiserie, a style that drew inspiration from Chinese art and culture, in 18th-century Europe.
