Vintage: 1981
Details: This figurine is by one of America's most loved artist, Norman Rockwell. Titled, "While the Audience Waits", it is a circus handler/trainer washing the paws of a performing Poodle, dressed in a blue costume and pointy hat. The details on this piece are impeccable, too many to list here, but just notice the wrinkles on the man's jacket, each little button, the gentle look on the man's face and the patient look on the dog's face, you can even see the letters on the soap bottle by his side, all truly delightful to look at. Produced by the Norman Rockwell Museum and part of the Rockwell Museum Porcelain Figurines Collection. Great for a Norman Rockwell collector, a Circus history collector, or a Poodle lover!
