Vintage Goebel W. Germany Blueboy Thomas Gainsborough Figurine 1966

A beautiful and classic vintage porcelain figurine of "Blueboy" by Goebel of West Germany. This figurine is a 3D representation of the iconic 18th-century portrait "The Blue Boy" by artist Thomas Gainsborough. It is often seen as a companion piece to Goebel's "Pinkie" figurine (FF 297). The statue is exquisitely detailed, featuring the boy in his famous teal-blue satin suit with a white lace collar. He holds a black hat with a white plume in his right hand. The hand-painted details and high-gloss glaze are hallmarks of Goebel's quality craftsmanship. Key Details: Brand: Goebel Origin: W.
