An early white-glazed theatrical Bow figure of Dottore Boloardo, c.1754, after the Meissen figure by Kändler and Reinicke from the Duke of Weissenfels series, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and ruffled collar, his left arm extended and holding a scroll, his right hand on his hip, good restoration to his left arm and hat brim, 15.5cm.
The Meissen model was loosely based on François Joullain's print Habit de docteur ancien.
