Figure of Seated Gentleman
Figure of Seated Gentleman by Meissen, black and white photo. The figure depicts a man sitting on a rock-like base. The base is rectangular with rounded edges and has several oval-shaped holes of varying sizes on its surface. The man sits with his right leg bent and resting on the base, while his left leg is bent with the foot tucked under the right leg. He wears a wide-brimmed hat, a dark-colored jacket with buttons down the front and on the cuffs, a light-colored shirt or vest underneath, and dark boots. His right hand is raised near his chest, and his left arm rests on his left leg. The background is plain and light-colored.
