Single Figurine Mouse with headphones

With his "Soundmouse" figurine, Meissen artist Maximilian Hagstotz has created a modern, poetic work of art in porcelain that captures the love of music and the magic of daydreaming in a little mouse. The 16.5 cm tall figurine wears headphones and is completely absorbed in itself - a moment of total immersion in another world.

"I love listening to music," says the artist, describing the idea behind the figurine. "When I lose myself in my music, I become calm. I enjoy the moment. And when someone speaks to me, I always need something to help me find my way back to the here and now." This personal mood is clearly reflected in the posture and charisma of the original Meissen porcelain figurine.

The musical notes make the theme of music visible - in direct contrast to the related figure of the Mouse King, whose musical ornamentation refers to a classical piece of music. In the case of the "Soundmouse," however, the notes represent the immediate, personal world of sound in the here and now - beats, melodies, and journeys of the mind via headphones. Two figures - one theme - two interpretations: classical and modern.

Made from the finest Meissen porcelain and finished by hand using traditional methods, the MEISSEN "Soundmouse" figurine combines perfect craftsmanship with a contemporary, individual expression. A mouse figurine full of emotion, silence, and music - a quiet companion for all those who like to take a moment to escape.
