Figurines Bear

August Gaul's bear figurine made of Meissen porcelain is one of his most famous animal sculptures: The seated bear was realized several times in different sizes. Typical features are the expressive, naturalistic gesture and the sculptural presence: the bear sits on an oval base, its head and paws appear lifelike and elegant at the same time.

Gaul (1869-1921), an important German animal sculptor, based his creations on studies in zoological gardens and attached great importance to calm, minimalist compositions - very much in the spirit of modern animal portraits.

This timeless bear figurine is not only a tribute to the majesty of nature, but also an impressive example of the outstanding craftsmanship and artistic refinement that have made the Meissen porcelain manufactory internationally renowned.
