Older zinnfiguren in my collection

Two sets obtained from Berliner Zinnfiguren.

I painted this large piece several years back and framed it as a single piece. It didn't turn me on to zinnfiguren then.

I think that the main appeal of zinnfiguren for me is in the smaller scales, where several pieces can be juxtaposed to give creative displays.


The next piece that I did then was a Bedouin camp scene. This set was mounted on hardboard and made to slope towards the front. I placed the whole scene in a box and made a picture frame for it.
