Description
A white-glazed Bow figure of a Flower Girl c.1755-60, modelled with a basket of flowers suspended from the crook of her right elbow, her left hand holding the hem of her overskirt, wearing wide hat tied with ribbon, some good restoration to her hat and right hand, 15cm.
Cf. Peter Bradshaw, Bow Porcelain Figures, pl.128. Bradshaw suggests that this figure is perhaps a copy of a Chelsea figure of Spring.
