    I’ve just been researching a Meissen Donkey and I think I saw some of these on my travels. Where I saw them is another matter…..:confused:

    Venus & a faun. (Yes, I know he doesn't have goat hooves; they are not always depicted that way.)

    Cupid/Eros if his wings are hiding back there; otherwise the Genius of Cupid/Eros.

    A child faun or the Genius of Bacchus/Dionysus.

    One is a putto; two or more are putti. Sounds rather rude, doesn't it? :muted:
