Scheibe-Alsbach - Figurine - Napoleon passage des Alpes - Porcelain

A striking hand-painted porcelain figurine depicting Napoleon Bonaparte on horseback, inspired by the famous painting “Napoleon Crossing the Alps.” The sculpture captures the dramatic movement of the horse rearing upward, with Napoleon raising his arm and wrapped in a flowing red cloak. The base is inscribed with historical references such as “Bonaparte,” “Anibal,” “Karolus Magnus,” and “Napoleon Bonaparte 1er Consul au Passage des Alpes,” echoing the heroic symbolism used in classical representations of Napoleon. The figurine bears a blue underglaze mark on the underside, indicating studio or workshop production from the early 20th century. Condition The piece is in good overall condition for its age, with minor wear consistent with time. Please examine all photos carefully as they form an important part of the description. Shipping The figurine will be packed with the greatest care and shipped with tracking and insurance.
