Antique White Capodimonte Porcelain Figurine Depicting A Group Of Children
Figurative group in white porcelain depicting three Neapolitan children, three young seated musicians.
The popular subject is rendered with great finesse in the poses, facial expressions and detailed clothing; it belongs to an iconographic tradition widely represented in Neapolitan sculpture of the 19th and 20th centuries.
The Capodimonte workshops played a significant role in spreading this type of subject, portraying scenes of children from the people – players, musicians or dancers – admired for their expressive charm and delicate craftsmanship.
The composition is complemented by a small low rectangular vase integrated into the group.
The piece dates from the early 20th century.
