Description
This poodle figurine named “Peggy” was designed by Leopold Anzengruber in 1955 and produced by Anzengruber Keramik. The figurine bears the model number 188. Its dark body is composed of rounded forms reminiscent of a poodle’s characteristic clip. Drooping ears and a slightly tilted head give the animal an alert expression.
Indented circles cover large areas of the surface. They suggest curly fur while also forming a uniform ornamental pattern. A comparable example is documented by Uta M. Matschiner in “Anzengruber Keramik Wien,” Linz 2002, page 245.
