Description:
- Enamelled white porcelain figure, representing a child on a fish.
- The fish's tail acts as a container, while the child sits on its head. Probably made in the second half of the 20th century, and signed by an unknown house, Maly.
- The signature is on the base of the piece, with a crown at the top.
- The artistic quality is superb, conveying both a great movement in harmony and a spectacular expression, with great skill in the execution of the sculpture and a very personal style.
- Its whiteness leaves to the viewer's imagination the influence of colour, which makes it very attractive as it is not polychrome.
- The porcelain is of high quality, bearing in mind that white porcelain is very difficult to make.
Conservation and Damage:
- The porcelain piece is complete and very well preserved, with no breaks and minimal wear to the underside of the base.
- There are small scratches on the child's hands, the nose, and small areas of the fish's mouth.
- The piece maintains the wear typical of it's age.
