"Summer" is a porcelain sculpture made by the Ludwigsburg Porcelain Manufactory in Germany. Created between 1785 and 1799, the sculpture depicts a romantic scene with two figures: a man and a woman. The couple is situated on a rocky base with a sculpted, partially nude female figure towering above them. This piece exemplifies the Rococo style, characterized by its ornate design and emphasis on playful sensuality. Today, it is housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, NY.
