This piece, \"Platero and Marcelino,\" takes its title from Juan Ramón Jiménez's beloved 1914 novella \u003cem\u003ePlatero y yo\u003c\/em\u003e — the story of a man and his devoted donkey, a touchstone of Spanish literature and later a Nobel Prize-winning body of work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe figurine captures a barefoot boy in a poncho and wide-brimmed hat, arms wrapped around the neck of his donkey in an unguarded embrace. Designed by sculptor Juan Huerta and issued in 1971, the piece carries Lladró's glossy glazed finish, with soft, naturalistic color work throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eModel #1181 was retired decades ago and is no longer in production — genuine scarcity, not a marketing description.
