This elegant porcelain figurine, titled Classic Dance (model 01005516), is a sophisticated study of poise and grace by sculptor Vicente Martínez. First issued in 1988, the piece depicts a young ballerina in a contemplative seated pose, adjusting her position with one arm raised in a delicate arc. She is dressed in a voluminous white tutu with intricate textured ruffles and a pale lilac bodice, reflecting the traditional aesthetic of classical ballet. The sculpture is finished in Lladro’s signature high-gloss glaze, which lends a luminous quality to the fine porcelain and highlights the soft, emotive details of the dancer's expression. This retired model is highly sought after by collectors of dance and performing arts themes for its fluid lines and masterful composition.
