Description from the seller
Augarten Wien – Robert Ullmann – French Bulldog – Model 1689 – Art Deco
A particularly beautiful porcelain figurine of a French bulldog, made by the renowned Austrian porcelain manufacturer Augarten Wien.
The figurine is attributed to Austrian sculptor Robert Ullmann (1903–1966), model number 1689, whose original design dates to around 1930.
The French bulldog is rendered true to life in a characteristic standing pose, with its typical upright bat ears, strong, compact build, and expressive head.
The refined finish in white glazed porcelain, with subtle hand-painted light brown accents, highlights the breed’s anatomical details and character.
