    Hochst La Baigneuse – Figura de porcelana Höchst firmada por Johann Peter Melchior, ca. 1775

    Hochst La Baigneuse es una figura original de porcelana Höchst firmada por Johann Peter Melchior (1747-1825), uno de los escultores de porcelana europeos más destacados del siglo XVIII. Creada alrededor de 1775 en la manufactura Höchst de Alemania , esta obra refleja el auge artístico de la fábrica, cuando Melchior era el modelador jefe. Como uno de los primeros ejemplos documentados de Hochst La Baigneuse, representa una pieza de referencia clave en la obra del escultor.

    La figura retrata a una joven desnuda en una pose modesta e introspectiva, de pie junto a un paño drapeado de color púrpura intenso que fluye sobre una base rocosa naturalista. La composición ilustra la transición del Rococó tardío al Neoclasicismo temprano en porcelana alemana, combinando una elegante sensualidad con una estética clásica más sobria. Dentro del corpus de modelos de Höchst La Baigneuse, este ejemplar destaca por su expresiva sutileza y sus refinadas proporciones.

    Realizada en porcelana blanca esmaltada , la escultura presenta rasgos faciales delicadamente pintados, drapeados con detalles dorados y una anatomía finamente modelada. El nombre de Melchior aparece en relieve en la base, y la marca original de la fábrica Höchst (la rueda azul bajo cubierta) confirma su autenticidad y origen de la época. Estos elementos la sitúan entre las versiones más codiciadas que se conservan de La Baigneuse de Hochst.

    El estado es excepcional: sin restauraciones, desconchones ni repintados. Las obras firmadas y documentadas de este período son escasas y cada vez más buscadas por coleccionistas expertos de porcelana alemana antigua y artes decorativas neoclásicas.

    Relevancia histórica y artística.
