A charming 19th century Meissen porcelain figure depicting a small dog in an animated, upright pose, exemplifying the naturalistic animal studies for which the Meissen manufactory is renowned.

The dog is modeled standing on its hind legs, with front paws raised in a playful, begging stance. Its expressive face, wide eyes, and slightly tilted head convey personality and movement. The fur is intricately detailed with flowing texture and carefully applied hand-painted coloration in shades of white and warm brown, enhancing the lifelike quality of the figure.

The long, drooping ears and feathered coat suggest a spaniel-type breed, rendered with particular attention to the layering and direction of the fur. The underside bears a blue crossed swords mark, consistent with Meissen production.

This piece is a fine example of Meissen’s ability to capture both realism and charm in porcelain, making it a desirable addition for collectors of animal figures or European ceramics.
