Blanc de Chine Girl Bust

This is a bust of a child (Supposedly meant to show the sister of Friedrich August der Starke aka Frederick the Strong) modelled by Franz Anton Bustelli and made by Nymphenburg in the early 20th century. The figure is superbly modeled with lots of detail and left in the white to show off all that detail. I especially enjoy the flowers in her hair and the bow in the back! The figure shows why Bustelli was by far the best designer of porcelain figures ever! Just amazing! The piece is marked on the front of the base just under the little openings with the impressed shield mark and again with the impressed shield mark to the underside along with with their green shield mark with a crown above and Nymphenburg underneath plus Western Germany under that. The model numbers 929 over 0 is underneath. The porcelain bust is 10.25 inches tall, 5.75 inches wide and 4.5 inches deep. The piece is in perfect condition which is hard to find due to all the fragile components of this model. The front of the base has three cut out holes and there is one in the back as well. It is a nice touch and helped with the firing process! I think she and her matching brother are the nicest busts in the porcelain world. Extremely well done and very elegant and decorative.
