Description
Signed Pair of Lady and Gentlemen Meissen Porcelain Figures
A lady and a gentleman, both attired in 18th-century European fashion. The gentleman is adorned in a white shirt with ruffles under a long, brown coat embellished with gold detailing and white breeches. He assumes a welcoming or conversational posture, marked by an outstretched hand. The lady, posed elegantly, sports a wide-brimmed hat adorned with a small figurine, a brown jacket over a white gown with floral motifs, and holds a basket in her right arm, introducing a pastoral element to her ensemble.
Both figures are set on detailed bases resembling rugged terrain, enhancing the sense of an aristocratic pastime in a natural setting.
