Porcelain female figure kneeling with a bowed head presenting fruit

This figure is part of a group which forms the bride's half of a table setting designed to celebrate the crown Prince's wedding in 1905. The Groom was depicted as a mounted Roman warrior and was accompanied, like the bride with appropriate attendants. A small number of full settings were made from 1905 and individual figures continued in production until the late 1930's. The painted decoration varies considerably in design, elaboration, richness and choice of colours and gilding
