This fine porcelain figurine depicts a young boy in 18th-century "rococo" attire, featuring a deep burgundy frock coat, a floral-patterned waistcoat, and blue-striped breeches. He is shown in a dynamic pose, holding a bunch of greens while tending to a group of geese and goslings at his feet. The piece stands on a characteristic Dresden rocaille base, heavily accented with hand-applied gilding. The painting is exceptionally detailed, particularly in the expressive facial features and the texture of the geese's feathers. Excellent: No chips, cracks, or restorations. Good: Minor age-related wear to the gilding; no structural damage. Dimensions: Height: Approx. 13 cm Base Width: Approx. 9 cm Markings: The base bears the underglaze blue "SP" monogram over "Dresden," identifying it as an authentic Carl Thieme piece. It also includes the painter's number "78" and an incised mold number.
