Rendezvous at the Hunt 1741 - 1751

"Rendezvous at the Hunt," a porcelain sculpture created by the Meissen Manufactory between 1741 and 1751, depicts a romantic scene of a couple embracing amidst a lush, floral landscape. The intricate details, including the woman's ornate gown and the man's dapper attire, showcase the skilled craftsmanship of the Meissen porcelain factory. The sculpture exemplifies the Rococo style, which emphasized elegance, delicate curves, and playful scenes. Now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, this charming piece offers a glimpse into the fashionable and romantic sensibilities of 18th-century Europe.
