Model #192 Unrecorded Peasant Male ( Romanian Garb) # 673
According to period documentation, Adolf Rohring was commissioned to
design 5 Romanian "Peasant" style figures and 8-10 "Freiheitshelden" or
heroic figures who fought in Romanian's history for national
independence. These would be official presents for statesmen of
Antonescu´s Romania.
Models
#191 and #192 are examples of these Romanian figures and are now the
highest recorded model #'s known for the Allach Porcelain concern.
These figures appeared on an auction site and were reportedly bought
back with a veteran along with a 3rd example of extreme rarity.
Having
been liberated from Dachau, as the story goes, would explain the high
model numbers as it would have put them in the factory at the end of
the war.
