This charming 19th-century porcelain figurine, created by an anonymous artist, depicts a man seated on a bag. The small, detailed sculpture measures just under 4 inches and is a unique example of folk art. The piece is likely a "still bank" or "money box" as it has a slot for inserting coins in the bag. Its playful and whimsical style would have been a popular choice for home decoration during its time. "Man seated on bag still bank" is currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
