<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Figtree3, post: 11040132, member: 33&quot;]Well, I went down a little rabbit hole on this, but have gotten out of it and now will present some findings.</p><p><br /></p><p>From partway down the rabbit hole: Here is a Delft figure &quot;emblematic of Winter&quot; that says the original model is &quot;traditionally attributed to Paul-Louis Cyfflé (1724-1806), a modeler who by 1766 was employed at the Lunéville factory in France.&quot;</p><p><a href="https://www.aronson.com/blue-white-figure-emblematic-winter-2/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.aronson.com/blue-white-figure-emblematic-winter-2/" rel="nofollow">https://www.aronson.com/blue-white-figure-emblematic-winter-2/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Further down the rabbit hole. Found this website called &quot;City of Nancy: artists and Lorraine&quot; and the following URL includes a lot of photos of figures and sculptures done by Paul-Louis Cyfflé.</p><p><a href="https://jcb1.eu/artisteC1/artistec1.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://jcb1.eu/artisteC1/artistec1.html" rel="nofollow">https://jcb1.eu/artisteC1/artistec1.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>In the 15th photo down that page is a group of three figures. The middle one has a fairly strong resemblance to the ceramic figures we&#039;ve seen in this thread.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://jcb1.eu/artisteC1/artistec1.image/101.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The caption says that the title of the middle figure is &quot;Jeune homme au chapeau&quot; -- &quot;Young man in hat.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is the entire caption under that photo.</p><p>CYFFLE Paul - Louis (1724 - 1806)</p><p>Lot composé de de trois statuettes en terre de Lorraine représentant respectivement &quot;Le jardinier&quot;, &quot;Jeune homme au chapeau&quot; et &quot;Jeune homme et son chien&quot;.
