Die Figur "Pferd", handbemalt und limitiert, vom MEISSEN®er Bildhauer Max Esser aus den 1920er Jahren zeigt ein müdes, niedergelassenes Pony mit massigem Körper und relativ kurzen Beinen. Angespannt hebt es den Kopf, schaut sich um und bläht verärgert die Nüstern. Vorbild der Figur ist ein Epos Goethes's, in welchem ein kleines Pferd voller Selbstvertrauen einen Hirsch zum Wettrennen herausfordert. Leider wird ihm seine Selbstüberschätzung zum Verhängnis und es bricht erschöpft zusammen. Für die Edition Limitierter Meisterwerke wurde die Figur im Jahr 2017 mit einem goldumrandeten Sockel, handbemalt, neu aufgelegt. Limitierung auf 25 Exemplare begrenzt.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

John D. ★★★★★

The hand-painted finish captures every detail of the pony's tired expression, making it feel like a tiny sculpture from another era. The heavy, grounded body and short legs give it a quiet charm that looks lovely on my shelf.

Miles B. ★★★★★

This little pony has a surprisingly heavy, solid feel in the hand, and the subdued, weary expression is exactly as described. The hand-painted details on the mane and hooves are delicate and precise, not sloppy at all.

Madison I. ★★★★★

The hand-painted finish is what sold me—every shade on the mane and body feels deliberate, not mass-produced. It’s a limited piece that carries a real sense of history from the 1920s. My shelf’s better for it.
