A Moment of Sweet Reflection

Bring a wonderful touch of childhood innocence and Bavarian artistry to your collection with this highly sought-after Goebel Hummel figurine, "Prayer Before Battle" (Model #20)! Known in German as Der fromme Reitersmann, this vintage collectible was originally modeled by the renowned master sculptor Arthur Moeller in 1935. It captures a delightfully sweet scene, featuring an adorable young boy pausing for a moment of prayer before heading out to play! He stands beside his trusty wooden-style rocking horse with his hands gently clasped. He is fully equipped for a backyard adventure, wearing a light green polka-dot shirt, blue shorts, sturdy brown boots, and a bright orange neckerchief, with a toy rifle slung over his shoulder and a play horn resting at his side! This incredible find comes complete with its original presentation box! 👦🏼🐎🎺🙏✨

Exquisite Craftsmanship & Quality: Measuring approximately 4-1/2" tall, this lovely figure is a breathtaking showcase of Goebel's famed dedication to character craftsmanship, bearing the TMK-6 trademark dated 1988! The meticulous hand-painted brushstrokes highlighting his peacefully focused, rosy-cheeked expression, the expertly sculpted, tactile texture of the rocking horse's mane and base, and the remarkably soft, classic matte color palettes highlight incredible German porcelain artistry! As seen in the pictures, it is in MINT condition with absolutely no chips, cracks, crazing, or professional repairs. ✨ Proudly display this sweet little soldier safely resting alongside its original box on a brightly lit nursery dresser, or as a charming focal point on a classic oak living room mantel!
