This porcelain sculpture, "Classical Warrior," is a fine example of the Höchst Manufactory’s work. Created in the 1760s-70s, the piece depicts a classical warrior, likely a Roman soldier, in a dynamic pose. The warrior's musculature is meticulously detailed, and his armor and clothing are rendered with great realism. The sculpture is now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
