This sculptural piece depicts a standing rooster with proud upright posture, molded feather detail, and a lively hand-painted palette of golden yellow, warm brown, cream, green, and dark charcoal tones. The figure has the charm and theatricality typical of French country majolica. The rooster’s chest is modeled with raised feathering, the tail curves upward with dark glazed accents, and the base is finished in deep green, giving the piece both stability and decorative contrast. The glaze has that rich, slightly glossy surface associated with French faience and majolica production, where color and texture were used to bring domestic animal forms to life.
