Hi to all,Ive been away this weekend and on my travels to a junk shop I found this gorgeous centrepiece of a small girl riding a large tortoise in matching float bowl.Reminds me of the boy riding the large fish,have never come across this version before.If anyone has any clues to maker or history I would be extremely grateful! Many thanks!

I looked on Black Poppy and they don't have an ID so it must be an unknown so far.  I sure like it and the stuff you got in the background!

I'm pretty sure, Siegmar Geiselberger has written about this in PK formerly - also at that time: maker unknown. Marcus?

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)
