In the mid 1930s, the beautiful lifelike artworks of Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel made their debut on post cards throughout Switzerland and Germany. These images of rosy cheeked children in natural settings caught the attention of Franz Goebel. Franz was the head director of the W. Goebel Porzellanfabrik porcelain company. He negotiated an agreement by and between the porcelain factory and Sister Hummel to craft figurines based upon the Sister’s subject matter in her drawings. Goebel showcased his figurines at the Leipzig Trade Fair, where the beautiful figurines were well received by all. However the popularity of the artforms were short lived with the commencement of World War II. Franz once again commenced production of the beloved figurines once the War ended and they became especially welcomed by the American Soldiers stationed in W. These historic figurines have graced many mantles in the past and present and continue to be coveted by collectors to the present day. I offer for your consideration this lovely Goebel W. Hummel Figurine entitled “LITTLE GOAT HERDER”. No paper title label around the base. Impressed on bottom is #201/I/1948; Year re-issued:1972; Retired: 1979. No nicks, chips, loss of paint, or repairs or crazing. Hummel figurines were first produced in 1935, as they have aged, some have developed some fine spidery crazing in the glazed surface, an authentication of their age and the pieces are still beautiful. This piece “does not” exhibit any crazing. This lovely figurine is a well cared for family heirloom. This will make a wonderful addition to any Hummel or figurine collection!
