Dahl Jensen swimming girl with mandolin figurine no. 1172

Dahl Jensen figurine no. 1172 combines music, summer atmosphere and classic Danish figurine art in one motif. The figurine depicts a swimming girl in a dark blue swimsuit, seated on a rock with the mandolin gathered close to her body. Her head is slightly bowed, her gaze concentrated on the instrument, and the entire composition has a calm, concentrated mood, which makes the figurine lively to look at from all angles.

It is precisely the meeting between the everyday and the poetic that makes this porcelain figurine so captivating. The swimming girl is modelled with soft lines and a natural posture, while the fine details in the hair, the straps of the swimsuit and the shape of the mandolin give the figurine character. The rock emphasizes the beach and bathing-life motif and creates a natural base that brings the expression together beautifully.

The artist Jens Peter Dahl Jensen is known for figurines with presence and narrative, and this Dahl Jensen figurine clearly shows his sense of movement and human atmosphere. The motif appeals both to collectors of Danish porcelain figurines and to those seeking a decorative child figurine with a music motif. The combination of child, swimsuit and mandolin gives the figurine a distinctive expression that stands out among classic porcelain figurines.

As an older figurine, it also contains the special charm that comes with quality design created to last. Choosing a vintage porcelain figurine is at the same time a beautiful way to let fine craftsmanship live on in a modern home. The figurine fits nicely in a collection with other Dahl Jensen figurines, but can also stand alone on a shelf, on a chest of drawers or in a display cabinet, where its form and glaze really come into their own.
