It measures 5 inches wide x 7.75 inches deep x 9 inches tall. I do not have the original box. HISTORY The “Court Jester” is one of seven figurines based on the paintings of Norman Rockwell. Although they were produced in 1982, these stunning, three-dimensional Norman Rockwell LLadros did not appear in any LLadro catalogs until 1998 and were never distributed through authorized LLadro dealers.
