The figure was accessioned as Mennecy, but the painted D.V. mark is now believed to indicate objects made during the Villeroy period. For the reattribution to Villeroy, see Documentation, Le Duc , 1987. The figure was inspired by a Japanese Kakiemon style seated figure. reference term-106451 adlib-term-106451 9cdfd62c-ee07-3884-ae08-c797aad08631 18th Century, Mid reference term-15538 adlib-term-15538
