Description
Circa 1978/Bavaria, Germany
Berta Hummel, later known as Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel, was a German nun and artist renowned for her charming depictions of children. Her artwork gained significant popularity, leading to a collaboration with the W. Goebel Porzellanfabrik in Germany to produce figurines based on her drawings. These figurines, often referred to simply as 'Hummel figurines,' became highly sought after worldwide for their endearing quality and artistic merit.
This particular bust appears to be a commemorative piece, possibly a special edition or a tribute, honoring Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel herself. The inscription "M. J. Hummel" refers to her artistic signature, and the plaque provides her birth and death dates, indicating it was created after her passing. Such memorial pieces often hold a special place among collectors, especially those who admire the artist's life and work.
