Légende
Figural Group: Musicians, c. 1737. An elegantly dressed couple accompany one another in a duet while seated on a tall-backed settee in this German porcelain figurine. The woman is likely playing a lute, an early form of the guitar, while the gentleman joins in with a wooden flute. Their music-making reflects their courtship and intimacy?a typical symbolic gesture rendered in such figural ceramic sculptures.
