Blanc de Chine Hunting Group Centerpiece

This is the rare center piece to the "Nymphenburger Jagd" group of figurines made by Nymphenburg in the early 20th century after 18th century originals. There are quite a few figures to this hunting group but the center piece one never sees so I was excited to find it! I already own the painted version but now managed to find it in white as well. The large figure has a lot going on that it is hard to describe it all but it includes a lady sitting in front of a column with a vase on top, a gentleman gutting a wild boar as well as a gentleman blowing the hunting horn as well as four dogs in different spots. The base is superbly modeled including tunnels as well as a fountain, a piece of a tree and some greenery in pots. There is lots of scroll work and even a dead dear and rabbit lying on the ground. Just an amazing amount of detail to this piece! The piece is marked with the impressed shield mark on the column over the fountain as well as on the underside with an incised number 90. as shown. The figurine is about 8.875 inches tall, 10 inches wide and 10.75 inches deep. It is amazingly in almost perfect condition with just the tip of the knife of the hunter gutting the boar missing and one leaf on a plant is chipped. It displays perfectly and is just amazing! Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $2249
