About this object

The statuette shows a small girl standing and looking over her left shoulder. She is dressed in an Eastern costume and holding flowers in her outstretched right hand. She is wearing a pink cap with an appendage hanging behind, a pink long robe over a pale yellow dress with maroon flowers, and a long blue skirt. Her robe flows in the back and serves as a support. She stands on a white base decorated with rococo scrolls touched with gold, and with two flowers in relief.
