"Orange-peckers" — Biscuit Porcelain Sculptural Group Vista Alegre

One of the most iconic and renowned pieces from the prestigious Vista Alegre Factory — the famous sculptural group "Pica-laranjas" (Orange-peckers), in moulded biscuit porcelain, embossed and entirely hand-painted with polychrome decoration of extraordinary realism.

The composition depicts two birds — the typical orange-peckers — perched on a tree trunk decorated with oranges and sculpted foliage in relief, in a naturalistic scene of great vivacity and detail. The quality of the hand painting and the refinement of the modelling are unmistakable hallmarks of Vista Alegre's excellence.
