Balogh Béla (1912–1991) – Art Deco Goose Family – Aquincum Porcelain Hungary, 1930s–1940s Elegant Art Deco porcelain goose family depicting a mother goose with her goslings, designed by Balogh Béla, one of the most important Hungarian porcelain designers of the 20th century. The composition is characterized by clean, flowing white forms, enhanced with black and red geometric Art Deco decorations along the sides, giving the piece a distinctly modernist and period-correct appearance. The minimalist yet expressive design is a fine example of Central European Art Deco animal sculpture. The underside bears the blue Aquincum factory mark, featuring the stylized eagle with square wings, confirming its origin.
