Crafted in Italy by celebrated porcelain artist Antonio Borsato, this expressive figurine captures a rugged, contemplative moment as a seated man takes a break from his labor to enjoy a fresh apple.

His weathered attire and posture convey a lifelike narrative of rural simplicity and human introspection. Finished in rich, earthy tones with fine detailing characteristic of Borsato's Capodimonte-influenced style, the base retains original Borsato, Italy labels. Measures approximately 10.75"H.Dimensions: See DescriptionCountry of Origin: ItalyCondition: Age related wear.
