A Porcelain Menagerie

One of the interesting exhibits at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston was of Meissen ceramics called "A Porcelain Menagerie"


 they were pretty big, the peacock here was probably about 5 feet tall, and the vultures about 3 feet tall.


 In the same area were some smaller scale pieces, also in the white glazed style:
 these candlesticks were about 10 inches tall
 A light-hearted little soldier.
I like sculptures that are all glazed in white.
