Extremely rare art nouveau figurine group by meissen: monumental figure of flora, taking a step forward in dance and holding large, heavy flower garlands of yellow roses, which are wrapped with a blue bow, in hands. The hair of the female nude is artfully tied into a striped cloth, which is held together by blue ribbons and is decorated with leaf branches over the ears. On her left shoulder she carries a naked boy who is holding in an upside down position a golden wreath of flowers and is looking down at the second putto with golden, shoulder-length hair, while he is pulling himself up on a garland that is lying on the right thigh of flora. The group is based on a white, stepped and rounded rectangular base with gold decoration. The figure is extremely rare and can hardly be found on the market. It is in immaculate, unrestored condition.
