The Meissen figure by Kändler (1974.232.1) served as a model for that made in the Ginori factory (1974.28.116). It is fascinating to observe some of the differences that exist between the German hard-paste figure with its admirable sharpness of modeling, and the Italian statuette with colors that sink into the soft-paste like footsteps in driven snow. One might also compare the plain base of the earlier model with the ornate rocaille base of the latter.
