Monk Figurine

This is a nice figurine of a monk or friar made by Nymphenburg in the early 20th century. He is traveling the road with a bag thrown over his shoulder and a cane in his left hand. Dressed with a long black robe with a brown and yellow top. He is wearing a hat and the cross is hanging of the side. Typical base with the addition of some greenery and a tree growing up the back side. It is a really nice figure that one does not find very often especially the painted version. The piece is in great condition with a chipped leaf to the tree, two spots on the greenery of the base that have a touch of green flaked off and a few minor black firing spots from when it was made. A very early example of these redos after the 18th century originals! The figure is marked with their impressed shield mark on the underside plus the incised model number 58. The figure is 6.5 inches tall, 3.75 inches wide and 4 inches deep. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $999
