A good pair of spelter figures after August Moreau, featuring a country boy and a girl.
\nThe girl wears an apron which holds fruit and has a pair of geese at her feet.
\nThe boy is barefoot and carries a jug and holds a stick.
\nThey have originally been very subtly painted and the effect is very attractive.
\nThey stand on black wooden plinths. Both are signed and they also have plates with the artist’s name inscription. <\/p>\n
