Statuette of the thorn shooter.

This statuette is a reproduction of the famous classical antique sculpture called The Spinario (also known as the Thorn Puller or Boy with Thorn), of which the original bronze is kept at the Capitoline Museums in Rome. According to the visual, this is a version in porcelain biscuit (or in alabaster / composite marble powder). The incised number under the base (4202.) corresponds to the model or mould number used by the manufacturer. In very good condition.
