A polychrome porcelain group depicting Napoleon and his son in the Capodimonte style, Italy, 20th century
Height x width x depth: 16 x 17 x 12 cm
Hand-modeled and hand-painted porcelain, depicting Napoleon Bonaparte seated on a sofa, engrossed in reading, while a child rests beside him with his head resting on Napoleon’s lap. The scene is rendered in vivid polychrome. The composition stands out for its attention to decorative details, such as the folds of the fabric, the furnishings, and the facial expressions, which lend the whole an intimate and domestic character.
Underneath the base is a mark featuring a crowned “N” in blue.
