GROUP UNDER A TREE MEISSEN

A large and richly modeled figural group depicting six figures (three women and three men) in Rococo costumes, gathered in a playful yet gallant scene beneath a leafy tree. The group is composed on a circular base from which rises a landscaped elevation with the figures arranged on several levels. The overall impression of the scene blends idyll, flirtation, and courtly charm, typical of late interpretations of Rococo aesthetics. Produced by the Meissen porcelain manufactory.

Damage: chipped shoe tip, minor chips, slight wear to the gilding.
