About the sculpture
This statuette of pipeclay is made in the second half of the 15th century in Siegburg, Germany by an unknown artist.
It represents the standing figure of a boy in costume of the period holding a sword in his right hand.
The material pipeclay is a fine white clay also used to make tobacco pipes and pottery.
Conveniently situated on a major trading route, Siegburg was a centre of ceramic production with well-organised workshops and kilns in which pipe-clay figures were also fired.
