The kneeling shepherd with his sheep shows a particularly quiet, intimate moment of the Christmas story. This four-part group of figures in white brings prudence and depth to the nativity scene and directs the eye to the essentials. Made in Seiffen folk art according to designs by Emil A. Schalling KG, this figure is created in the spa town of Seiffen. The design follows a clear, tradition-conscious line that has been associated with Schalling nativity scene art for generations. The shepherd is depicted kneeling, accompanied by three sheep standing calmly. The posture seems attentive and respectful, as a quiet expression of care and closeness. The white surface underlines the shape and gives the group a restrained elegance. With a height of 9 cm, this group of figures is ideal for finely constructed nativity scenes or as a complementary element in larger scenes. It can be harmoniously combined with other Schalling figures and fits perfectly into existing arrangements. Schalling nativity figures stand for timeless design and craftsmanship.
