Description

Material: Porcelain. Accession number: JB 009. Current Location: [The Hunt Museum](https://www.huntmuseum.com/), [Limerick](https://www.geonames.org/7778675/limerick-city.html). This porcelain pietà was made in the [Meissen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meissen_porcelain) factory near Dresden. The quality of the modelling in the Pietà suggests that it may be the work of [ J. J. Kändler](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Joachim_K%C3%A4ndler), the outstanding Meissen modeller.
