Colors of Life - Norman Hughes Figurine

This item is a decorative porcelain or resin figurine titled 'Colors of Life,' designed by the artist Norman Hughes. The sculpture features a Black man and woman in a romantic, tender embrace standing upon an oval base textured to resemble a cobblestone or tiled floor. Both figures are barefoot and dressed in flowing, ivory-toned garments; the woman wears a floor-length sleeveless dress with a ruffled hem, while the man wears a draped robe featuring blue patterned embroidery on the sleeve. The woman has a delicate pink flower tucked behind her ear, and a similar fallen flower rests at their feet. The piece is characterized by its matte finish and subtle, naturalistic color palette. The facial expressions are serene and detailed, highlighting fine craftsmanship in the molding of the hair and skin tones. The overall height appears to be moderate, likely between 10 to 14 inches based on surrounding objects. The condition appears excellent with no visible chips, cracks, or repairs, though fine dust may be present in the crevices of the pleated fabric. This style is consistent with late 20th to early 21st-century collectible figurines designed for brands like The Hamilton Collection.
