Hunting Couple 1770 - 1780

This porcelain figurine, created by the Fulda Pottery and Porcelain Manufactory between 1770 and 1780, depicts a hunting couple. The figures are dressed in hunting attire, and the scene is set in a woodland environment. The woman holds a gun while the man holds his hand on her shoulder. The piece is a testament to the popularity of hunting as a leisure activity during the 18th century, and the elaborate details on the figures and their clothing are a hallmark of German porcelain making.
