Royal Copenhagen Boy with goat figurine no. 434 Allan Therkelsen

Royal Copenhagen figurine no. 434, Boy with goat, captures a calm and present moment from life in the countryside. The figurine shows a boy squatting close to a goat, while he reaches his hand forward with feed. The motif has a warm story of trust, care and the close contact between child and animal, which makes the figurine ideal for collectors of farm figurines, agricultural figurines and classic porcelain figurines.

The design was created by Allan Therkelsen and belongs to Royal Copenhagen's figurine series Children with farm animals from 2006. The soft modelling and the fine coloured details give the figurine life and character. The boy's light hair, white sweater and blue overalls stand beautifully against the goat's dark coat with light markings, and it is precisely the contrast between the child's calm movement and the animal's relaxed posture that gives the motif a natural and credible appearance.

As a porcelain figurine, it is a fine choice for you who are fond of Royal Copenhagen, Danish design and figurines with a narrative motif. It fits well in a collection with other figurines from a farm environment, but can also stand alone on the shelf, in the display cabinet or on a ledge, where it adds personality and a touch of rural atmosphere to the home. For many, this particular type of figurine will also evoke memories of childhood, animals and a simpler everyday life close to nature.

Older and discontinued porcelain figurines like this one have a special charm because they were created to be preserved and appreciated through many years. Choosing a figurine with history is at the same time a beautiful way to let classic craftsmanship live on in a modern home.
