Rosenthal - Fritz Klimsch - Statue, Die Hockende - 32 cm - Bone china - 1936

The collector figure "Die Hockende" is an intricate porcelain art sculpture by the German sculptor Fritz Klimsch, produced at the Rosenthal porcelain manufactory in Selb, Bavaria. This extraordinarily authentic sculpture was designed in 1936 by the artist Fritz Klimsch (1870-1960) for Rosenthal. Klimsch was a prominent German sculptor, influenced by Rodin’s works, which he encountered on his honeymoon in Paris. He was a co-founder of the Berlin Secession together with Walter Leistikow and Max Liebermann. The sculpture depicts a female, crouching nude, typical of Klimsch’s idealized, serene depictions in the Art Deco style. The piece shows a naked female figure rendered in a crouching stance. This position is characterized by a strong curve of the body, arms held close to the torso, and a compact, closed silhouette. The stance appears introspective, calm, and composed—a moment of quiet self-absorption. The figure is anatomically idealized, with soft, flowing contours that emphasize the body's curves—typical of Klimsch’s classical approach, which aimed at aesthetically perfected, expressive, and material-appropriate sculptures. The figure radiates quiet, enclosure, and inner concentration. The crouching pose creates a compact, almost sculpture-closed form, which is especially accentuated in bisque porcelain by the matte, ivory-colored surface. The sculpture appears both delicate and monumental, a tension that frequently marks Klimsch’s work. Good, well-preserved condition, display piece. The figure is in an impeccable, very good condition. No cracks, chips, or other damages are visible. All delicate parts such as the fingers are completely intact.
